“There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure”

The story of Dev Polymers, a partnership concern ruling the footwear industry since 25 July 2012 in Agra, is a perfect example. Agra has always been a leader in the export of shoes. From the Mughal era itself, Agra has had an emerging shoe industry and is an important cluster in this sector even today. The city creates employment for lakhs of people and has various institutions that provide training in footwear making. The government has also been supportive and has initiated the Indian Footwear, Leather & Accessories Development Programmes.

As the city has enough potential, it has given rise to great entrepreneurs in the shoe industry. Dev Polymers is one such example of a partnership led by enthusiastic people. The people behind the firm are Mr Om Prakash Sharma, Mr Jitender Kumar, and Ms Renu Joshi. The 10- year-old firm engages in the manufacturing of leather and synthetic leather shoes. It has soles with a total installed capacity of 3,50,000 pairs per annum, and the current utilization is 18,60,000 per annum.

The firm has a powerful workforce with 33 employees who work one shift per day. The three partners also boast of having experience of more than three decades. With its expertise and hard work, the firm has gained the trust of brands like Ravi Traders, IMW Industry, Gupta Chemicals, Ayan Enterprises, Sunil Enterprise, and Hindustan Corporation.

The firm is set to light up the shoe industry with its hard work and creative skills. They already have work orders worth Rs. 1 crore to be completed by March 2022 and many others for the upcoming months. The company is a true embodiment of how success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out.
