About UsShri Damodar Juthalal left for Mozambique, Africa from his native Gujarat, as a young entrepreneur and he established a career in trading of copra, cashew, and import of textile. Goa being the only sea entry route to India in those days, he arrived in 1943 at Goa en route to get his daughter Jaya married. Having brought with him tea of a high quality, which was not easily available in Goa, he made a good profit in the sale of that commodity and was thus encouraged to spread his entrepreneurship to Goa, besides his interests in oil mills in Gujarat. He returned to Goa and set up his family company – Damodar Mangalji & Cia Ltd and started trading in various commodities in Goa. When Iron Ore deposits were discovered in Goa, Mr. Damodar being already well established here, ventured into Iron Ore Mining and exports from 1948. He started exporting to Europe and after the closure of the Suez Canal, he established a strong supply contract with Nippon Steel mill in Japan. In 1944, Damodar Mangalji e Companhia Limitada was founded by late Shri Damodar Juthalal in Goa under the Portuguese regime and thereby a modest beginning was made. Earlier to this period, business of trading was done in Mozambique, what was then Portuguese East Africa. He left his family and the people of Goa, a legacy to benefit from, for the future generations to come. |
