HISTORY
One of the largest privately-held diversified industrial
corporations in India, the Company celebrated its centenary in
1997. In 1897 a young man named Ardeshir Godrej gave up
law and turned to lock-making. Ardeshir went on to make safes
and security equipment of the highest order, and then stunned
the world by creating toilet soap from vegetable oil. His brother
Pirojsha Godrej carried Ardeshir's dream forward, leading
Godrej towards becoming a vibrant, multi-business enterprise.
Pirojsha laid the foundation for the sprawling industrial garden
township (ISO 14001-certified) now called Pirojshanagar in the
suburbs of Mumbai. Godrej touches the lives of millions of
Indians every day. To them, it is a symbol of enduring ideals in
a changing world.
