The Students of Class 2 BBA A went on an Industrial Trip
today and visited the fantastic TVS Factory located in Hosur. We saw the
entire manufacturing process of scooters right from product design and
planning to assembling and painting. We also understood the different
types of plant layouts and Production Systems.
TVS Motor Company is the third largest two-wheeler
manufacturer in India, with a revenue of Rs.11,516 Cr in 2015-16. It is
the flagship company of the TVS Group. The company has an annual sales
of 2.5 million units and an annual capacity of over 3 million vehicles.
TVS Motor Company is also the 2nd largest exporter in India with exports
to over 60 Countries.

TVS was established by T. V. Sundaram Iyengar. The company
set up a plant at Hosur in 1978, to manufacture mopeds as part of their
new division. A technical collaboration with the Japanese auto giant
Suzuki Ltd. resulted in the joint-venture between Sundaram Clayton Ltd
and Suzuki Motor Corporation, in 1982. Commercial production of
motorcycles began in 1984. In 2001, after separating ways with Suzuki,
the company was renamed TVS Motor.
We were acquainted with a lot of information and learnt
first hand facts about the plant- like labour arrangements,
uninterrupted power supply, various buildings and facilities on the 300
acre property. It was amazing to watch some impressive machines at
work. Indeed a wonderful experience that left delightful memories to
cherish.
