Custom Research and Manufacturing Industry (CRAMs) in India is highly fragmented and spread across the length and breadth of the country. Moreover, there are many small and medium sized Indian CRAMs having commendable expertise in highly complex chemistries that are still unknown to the world due to their inadequate advertising funds and poor marketing muscle.

The key impediment in tapping this market is the lack of adequate knowledge on the entire spectrum of companies in India. More specifically, it is often difficult to find niche companies having "rare-to-find" capabilities that also fit into your desired profile of an outsourcing partner.

Route2India is a fully integrated and customized service which enables identification and evaluation of Custom Research / Custom Manufacturing companies in India.

ROW2 Technologies with its "in-depth" understanding of the Indian CRAMs and the knowledge acquired through its efforts in serving this industry, can now boast of having one-on-one relationships with the major and relevant manufacturing companies capable of carrying out single to multi-step organic synthesis / manufacturing. This enables ROW2 to be in the best position to help companies outside of India to identify the right partners for outsourcing.

How do we do it?

A typical Route2India project is carried out as follows:

• We then conduct a search in our proprietary database of CRAMs companies and identify prospective manufacturers which fit the parameters defined
  

Phase I-

Secondary Source: Includes information from company websites, balance sheets, associations, stock exchange, publications, etc.
