Lanco Group

LANCO's history as an organisation is a reflection of the spirit of entrepreneurship, a far-sighted vision, dynamic leadership, ability to overcome adversity and take calculated risks, teamwork by committed professionals, and agility to take advantage of emergent opportunities.

In 1960, brothers Amarappa Naidu, Venkata Rama Naidu and Venkata Ratnam Naidu laid the foundation of LANCO by starting a transport business with one truck (a converted bus) inherited from their father L.V. Subba Naidu. Amarappa Naidu's business acumen and the brothers' commitment soon led to orders pouring in from construction companies that needed material to be transported to and from construction sites. By 1976, the thriving business boasted of a fleet of 100 trucks that serviced the construction industry in Andhra Pradesh.
