Kolhapur The land where the voices of clay wrestling and riot have echoed for centuries, another champion has come out from there – but this champion has come from the world of gym machines, not from the arena. This is the story of Dilip Patil, who turned his small dream into a big industry. Today, the example of his hard work can be seen not only in Kolhapur, but also in gym and fitness centers across the country.
Dilip Patil comes from a middle class family. He was born and raised in the same soil of Kolhapur, from where many riots came out. He studied engineering from well -known KIT College in Kolhapur and then developed an understanding of technical and management by working in big companies like Poona and Kirloskar. But he wanted to do something different inside, which pulled him back to Kolhapur.
Large work started in your city
When the rest of the people get lost in the glare of big cities, Dileep turned to his roots. He launched a company called ‘Digo Combines’ which makes the gym’s state -of -the -art equipment. From the treadmill, cycling machine, weight lifting station to multi-jim machine, everything is prepared in their factory. Today his company is sending its products from Pune, Mumbai, Nashik, Nagpur to Karnataka, Gujarat, Goa and Andhra Pradesh in Maharashtra.
Dileep’s hard work paid off and now his earnings are more than three lakh rupees every month. The demand for their machines is constantly increasing. The special thing is that they completely trust ‘Make in India’ and are giving tough competition to foreign brands. Their quality is not less than any international brand, but the prices are quite economical.
Employment given to local people, increased value of Kolhapur
Today, more than 200 employees are working in his factory, most of which are from Kolhapur and nearby. This not only gave strength to Dileep’s company, but the local economy of Kolhapur has also got strength. Their thinking is clear – start from your city, but keep an eye on the whole world.
Now Indian fitness strength will also be sent abroad
Dilip Patil no longer wants to stay in India. His next step is to send his gym equipment to the Middle East and South Asia countries. For this, they have made complete preparations and soon the name of ‘Doho Combines’ will be heard abroad.
