HIMALAYA YARN CORPORATION LTD.

What HIMALAYA YARN CORPORATION LTD. does

HIMALAYA YARN CORPORATION LTD. operates as the textile arm of The Himalaya Group, a family-owned diversified Indian conglomerate headquartered in Sachin, Surat, Gujarat. The company manufactures fancy yarn — including polyester cotton blends, polyester yarn, and cotton yarn in counts from 20s PC to 80s PC with high-twist, low-twist, and slub variants — across spinning units in Sachin and Navsari and a weaving unit in Surat, operating 30,000 spindles with annual capacity of 2,000 metric tons and monthly throughput of 150 metric tons. Manufacturing relies on imported capital equipment from Truetzschler, LMW, Schlafhorst, and Uster, with polyester staple fiber sourced principally from Bombay Dyeing.

Beyond yarn, the broader Himalaya Group — under which the company sits alongside wholly-owned operating subsidiaries — runs a cold-chain unit founded in 2017 in Solan, Himachal Pradesh, comprising 10 chambers of controlled-atmosphere cold storage (1,000 MT liquid capacity via Van Amerongen technology plus 1,000 MT dry capacity with BITZER compressors and SALCO doors), with produce sorted and graded using GREEFA machinery and distributed PAN-India to Delhi, Surat, and Chennai markets. A separate real-estate division has completed a five-storey commercial building (occupied by KP Group as its head office in Bhatar, Surat) and a five-storey residential project (Adishwar Apartment), with future commercial projects planned in Rohit (Bharuch), Bavliyari (Ahmedabad), and Radhanpur (Patan) districts.

The business model is B2B sales-led across all three verticals, with no publicly disclosed pricing and quote-based commercial terms. Customers include weaving and knitting manufacturers across four textile hubs for yarn, institutional produce buyers across three major metros for cold-chain output, and a single anchor commercial tenant plus individual residential buyers for real estate. The group employs 250 direct and 200 indirect workers in textile operations and is led by the Desai family under Chairperson Mamta N. Desai and Managing Director Ravi R. Desai.
