Right from the time it is a little sapling taking its first peek into the world, to when it turns into a full-fledged tree, its flowers and leaves providing relief and respite to the weary traveller? That, in a nutshell, is growth. Growth is progress. Growth is development. Growth is transformation. So whether it is the human mind, the power of innovation and creative energy, or the sheer size and scale of a gigantic corporation, growth is that central energy on which the world moves forward. It is one of the very few things which are limitless, because human intelligence, spirit and wonder know no limits. Growth is powered by imagination and the spirit to dream. The spirit of enterprise and the will to tread a path different from the road less travelled are fuelled by that desire to grow, just like the sapling which reaches out for the warmth of the first rays of the sun. Growth is also central to the story of the evolution of the world. The invention of the wheel, the first ring of the telephone, the first tentative steps taken by man on the moon - these have all been the result of that desire to grow, to develop, to move forward. To us at CEAT, growth means all these things and more. Growth is a way of life, the wheel which will take us forward into a new and more exciting future. It is innovation, it is technology, it is reach. It is a deep commitment to society, to touch the lives of the people who are our stakeholders. They say that if people are growing, they will always be out of their comfort zone. At CEAT, there are no comfort zones. We are always challenging ourselves, pushing the envelope, raising the bar. Whether it is the latest in tyre technology, or the commitment to reducing our carbon footprint, or reaching new markets across the globe, growth is central to CEAT's very existence. For over five decades, we have pursued this dream relentlessly, breaking down boundaries and moving ahead. So if we produce over 10 million tyres every year or reach 112 countries, these are just a few examples of CEAT's desire to dream. And to grow. 1 Vision Mission COMPANY SNAPSHOT "CEAT will at all times provide "To nurture an exciting and total customer satisfaction challenging work environment About the Company through products and services with fairness and transparency." of highest quality and reliability."
