ZERUND Revenue Grows 400% YoY

Guwahati : Guwahati-based sustainable brick producer ZERUND reported impressive year-over-year sales increase of 410% from FY 2021-22 to FY 2022-23. With over 2500 customers, this shows the company has been rapidly expanding since its beginnings in the field of eco-friendly building. In addition, the firm has sold 400,000 bricks so far, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to the building sector, and has an extremely ambitious ambition to increase sales to over 800,000 bricks during the current fiscal year.

ZERUND’s current Month-on-Month (MoM) growth rate of 20% confirms the company’s status as an industry leader in environmentally friendly production methods. Furthermore demonstrating its unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility, the company recycled over 1500+ tonnes of plastic waste and 10,000+ tonnes of industrial waste last year to produce its sustainable bricks. The company has a zero net emission and is committed to recycling increasing volumes of other garbage, which fits perfectly with its rapid growth strategy.

“At ZERUND, we are firm believers that greener, more egalitarian futures can be achieved via sustainable development. Our continued dedication to sustainable development is shown by the widespread recognition and approval of our environmentally responsible manufacturing practises from respected organisations. We are committed to advocating for environmentally responsible practises and reducing the construction industry’s carbon footprint even as we work to grow our business and improve our influence. Our goal is to provide the building sector with greener, more efficient, and less expensive options via our relentless pursuit of innovation and refinement of our production processes. We are excited to expand our business and do our part in making the world a better place for future generations. ZERUND CO-FOUNDER AND CEO DAVID GOGOI stated.

In an effort to expand its reach and presence in the sustainable construction industry, ZERUND is actively seeking partnerships and exploring new opportunities to establish additional manufacturing facilities in both South and North India. Currently, the company has manufacturing facilities in North-East India and some parts of West India with a combined monthly manufacturing capacity of 3,50,000 bricks. Presently, the geographical reach of the company is in Northeast India, Bhutan, Bengal, and Maharashtra, where it has established itself as a leader in sustainable brick manufacturing. With the introduction of new manufacturing facilities, ZERUND aims to expand its footprint to 3 new cities which include Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad, and Bangalore.

ZERUND has secured significant financial backing from a multitude of renowned institutions, such as Gruhas Proptech, DLF family office, NEDFI, Anthill ventures, Villgro, Numaligarh Refinery Limited, Habitat for Humanity, and Assam Government (Grants), which align with its mission of fostering sustainable development. These investments have enabled the company to increase its production capacity, expand its operations, and cater to the escalating demand for environmentally friendly construction materials. In pursuit of further expansion, ZERUND plans to raise additional funds in the current year.

At present, ZERUND boasts a team of 50 highly skilled professionals dedicated to sustainable manufacturing practices. In a bid to bolster its operations and promote employment opportunities, the company also has very aggressive hiring plans this fiscal year. This initiative is poised to stimulate economic growth while creating new opportunities for skilled professionals across the country. By scaling up its workforce, ZERUND is reaffirming its commitment to sustainable growth and contributing towards the nation’s economic development.
