1961
U.S.V Private Limited is an Indian multinational pharmaceutical company with its headquarters in Mumbai. The company was founded in the year 1961 by Vithal Balkrishna Gandhi. It was incorporated in 1961 as a Private Limited company. Gandhi, the son of a vegetable vendor, had a humble family background and had to fund his education through sponsorships and tutions. He returned from America to his village after completing his education and was called the ‘American Gandhi’ by his people. His first business that he did with his friend Shantilal Parekh in the import of cashews emptied his pockets and he had to come back to India. However, he continued business activities with his friend and got the opportunity to trade in pharmaceuticals and radio accessories. They then incorporated their company under the name "American Products Company Ltd." Gandhi, due to his modest background had to once work in a mill in the slums of Mumbai where other workers and people living in slums caught Gandhi’s attention thereby making him aware of the dire need for bringing to India, healthcare and medicinal facilities.
