Summary: | Meghmani Organics Limited (MOL) is a
chemical group located in the state of Gujarat in India. Its
main products are specialty chemicals, including pigments,
pesticides, and other intermediates. Prior to International
Finance Corporation's (IFC's) investment, MOL had
four manufacturing facilities in Gujarat, India, with about
2,000 employees. In 2008, IFC invested in MOL to build
Meghmani FineChem Limited (MFL), a green field chlor-alkali
plant, in Dahej, a port city in Gujarat. This smart lesson
provides a snapshot of the changes that took place in MFL
following IFC's recommendation for the company to
employ women. |
