About the Rousing Journey of this Successful Enterprise
After Independence, the Indian Surgical instruments
Industry was in a very primitive stage. Most of the surgical
instruments were imported and therefore were expensive.
Mr.Theodore George had manufacturing experience in
surgical instruments, and he saw plenty of potentials as
there were a huge demand from surgeons to supply quality
surgical instruments at reasonable prices. In order to serve
customers with affordable, high-quality surgical

instruments, Mr. Theodore George founded GESCO in the
year 1962.
In the year 1985, Mr. Samuel Williams George, the current
CEO and the eldest son of Mr. Theodore George joined the
business as a young engineer. In the early 90s, Samuel
George saw a gap in the market for good quality Spinal
implants at affordable prices as European and American
giants dominated this market. Inspite of the heavy
competition that they face in the market, their rich R&D
experience, cutting-edge machinery, inherent focus on
quality and innovation helps them to differentiate

expertise leading in manufacturing on high-quality surgical
instruments supplemented the production of high-quality
Spinal implants at affordable prices. Today, GESCO is the
largest Spinal implants manufacturer in the country.
