Amit Singhal Email & Phone Number

Originally from and raised in Mumbai, Amit K. Singhal completed his Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry in 1995 from Guru Khalsa College, Mumbai and prior to that he completed his schooling from Pathak College in Santacruz, Mumbai. After completing his degree, he joined National Institute of Information Technology (NIIT), Mumbai to pursue a two-year course in computers. With his eagerness and passion towards marketing, he decided to join NIIT as a marketing executive. After two years of his tenure at NIIT he finally moved on to settle in United Arab Emirates.Speaking about his career and struggles, Amit K. Singhal, director and owner of Global Packaging and L&K International FZC, said, “While I was pursuing my NIIT course, I used to attend seminars and events, which heightened my marketing skills. Later, seeing my skills, NIIT chief appointed me as a marketing executive and I started attending to walk-in clients. Since, I was technically aware about the products, I was also able to elaborate about the courses properly. After couple of years, I was transferred to another NIIT branch with a salary hike within a short span. At that time, my uncle and mentor who is also owner of Global Packaging was running a business in UAE and he requested me to be a part of the business. After consulting with my parents I took the offer and joined Global Packaging for INR 8,000. At that point of time the company had only two members, the director and myself. We worked together to get some business but were unable to and after some period of time the director resigned. Hearing this, my uncle asked me to close the company and return to India. However, I still had some hope and requested for a month’s time to get some business. Daily, I commuted on a bicycle within SAIF Zone to visit Sharjah customs, admin office and visited clients within this area with bags loaded with samples on bicycle in order to explore business opportunities. I still have the bicycle in my office, which regularly reminds me about the difficult times I had. After trying for a month when nothing happened, my uncle again asked me to return back to India. I called up my parents and explained my situation and they accepted me to come back but destiny didn’t allow me to return and stopped me from getting a flight. Later, I reworked on the ideas and rejoiced myself and went to the market with the last and final hope. Soon the business started flourishing and in 2005 I became a business partner in the company.Signing off, he advices: “Never give up, never give in, for hope is there to make you win.”
