Edmund Optics® expands its presence in India to better meet customer demand

For over a decade, Edmund Optics has conducted business in India through the support of sales representatives and distributors. During this time, the company proactively partnered with businesses developing products to support life-changing applications in the market, such as a medical device company that helps Indian citizens by bringing necessary eye care to rural regions of the country.

As the Indian market grows and continues to gain importance globally, it is increasingly important to offer customers direct access to Edmund Optics’ award-winning services and products. Additionally, to enhance and simplify the online shopping experience, Edmund Optics now offers a designated website for India that allows users to shop in Indian Rupees (₹).

“Asia has already been a primary focus of Edmund Optics for many years, not only for the purpose of serving customers, but also to build relationships and connect with the market.” stated Timothy Paul Kennedy, Director of Edmund Optics India and Senior Director of Asia Sales and Marketing. “We are dedicated to better understanding the dynamics of the multitude of cultures in the region while always striving to meet our customers‘ needs. With the opening of an Edmund Optics facility in India, the company has set the foundation to support and grow together with our customers in the region.”

The Bangalore office is under the leadership of Joonho Rhee, Regional Sales Manager for Edmund Optics Asia. Additionally, Deepthi Sasikumar, who spent many years as a Senior Applications Engineer in  the company’s Singapore office, has returned to India to take on a leadership role at the facility. The Bangalore office employs highly skilled engineers who are focused on business development and technical engineering support.
