About the initiative

Experience meets
industry vision.

AIPPD grows out of a long association with India's printing industry and the experience of Mr. Nayan Raval, who has spent the last 25 years connected with the trading of new and used printing and packaging machinery.

Mr. Nayan Raval

Before AIPPD, Nayan spent 25 years trading new and used printing and packaging machinery — work that put him in direct contact with thousands of printers, manufacturers and suppliers across the country. That vantage point exposed a gap the industry rarely talks about: a fragmented ecosystem with no single, reliable place to find who makes what, where.

GPD and WIPPD were his first attempts at solving this — starting in Gujarat, then expanding across Western India. AIPPD is the natural next step: taking the same trusted model and building it for the entire country.

Why AIPPD

A common reference point for a fragmented ecosystem.

The idea behind AIPPD is simple: collect information from printing and packaging businesses across India and publish it in one directory — extending the earlier Gujarat and Western India work into a platform for the whole country.

The goal was never just to print names in a book. It's to make manufacturers, dealers, printers, designers, suppliers, institutions and every allied business easier to discover, and easier to connect with.
