Our Team

Company History

Madurai Arkay Rock Produce was founded by the late Ramalingam Sriram over three decades ago. Coming from humble beginnings as a first-generation entrepreneur, he built the company with a clear vision and unwavering determination.

 

A mechanical engineer by education, he set out to establish a manufacturing unit capable of producing the finest granite products using cutting-edge technology. His values were simple yet powerful — honesty, service, and uncompromising quality.

He was also deeply committed to setting high standards in factory planning and operational excellence, principles that continue to guide MARP India today.
