As a distinguished second-generation entrepreneur, Seth has led Sudhir Group to remarkable milestones, said IPAF, with a group revenue exceeding US$400 million. “His strategic, operational, and financial expertise has significantly contributed to the company’s success,” added IPAF.
The company boasts an extensive fleet of more than 6,500 aerial platforms, 3,000 gensets, and 1,000 units of material handing equipment, operating across 20 rental locations in India, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the UK.
The group’s partnerships with global leaders such as Cummins USA, Schneider France, Beaward UK, and JLG USA have enabled it to cater to the needs of over 100,000 customers, served by a team of more than 4,000 professionals across multiple manufacturing facilities in India.
Karel Huijser, appointed IPAF President earlier this year in March, commented, “We are thrilled to have Rahul Seth join the IPAF board. His track record, combined with his leadership credentials, aligns perfectly with IPAF’s mission to promote the safe and effective use of powered access equipment worldwide. Rahul’s announcement also shows our commitment to global growth, and we anticipate Rahul’s experience will greatly benefit our organisation and its members.”
Apart from his business acumen, Rahul Seth is a committed philanthropist. He has been recognised for the establishment of a large skill development centre that provides training and employment opportunities to over 1,000 students.
Peter Douglas, IPAF CEO and Managing Director, welcomed Rahul. “The IPAF board is confident that Rahul’s wealth of experience and leadership will bring immense value to the federation. We look forward to the contributions he will make towards advancing the objectives of IPAF and generating further growth and innovation in the industry.”
