LG is known worldwide as a brand that produces quality products, now we want to make it known as an unparalleled organization which excels in transactional, environment, process & system quality.

We recognize that customer delight and satisfaction are crucial factors determining the growth trajectory of a company and give it a competitive edge. It therefore is imperative that we strive to to set new benchmarks in customer service, enhance brand credibility and eventually increase our customer base.

Going forward, we have set ourselves a targeted growth of 15% in terms of turnover. While maintaining market leadership in home appliances and consumer electronics, LG will aggressively strengthen its competitiveness in mobile communications and Flat panel displays. Simultaneously, LG India will synergize it's activities as a leading global electronics & telecom company with premium value. India is currently the fastest growing economy in the world, with disposable incomes increasing tremendously. Therefore we are increasingly focusing on premium products in each category, so tap this growing base of consumer who want the very best. We are therefore coming out with high end products in each of our product categories as well as creating a nationwide network of experience zones, to match the ambience with the looks of these products.
