Back then, it was a bustling railway town hugely\ninfluenced by the British way of life. This led them to take up a number of\ndealerships for Kinetic, Philips and Godrej in its early years. They also had\nrailway contracts, among others.\nIn the year 1999, Bhandari Group moved out of the consumer durables\nspace while it was on top and ventured into Maruti Suzuki dealerships. It\nwas a strategic decision to become a full-time auto dealer and have the\nentire range from passenger cars to commercial vehicles. Since then the\ncompany has grown many folds. It is known for its quality in providing\nefficient services. The legacy of the dealership continues as a number of\nprofessionals have joined the dealership team. In 2001, Sanjay Bhandari\ntook up the dealership of Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. and forged the MSIL-\nBhandari bond. Little did he know that more than a decade later, the seeds\nthey had planted at the small city of Kharagpur would grow and blossom\ninto a thriving auto group, with four separate Maruti dealerships offering\nservices in over 20 cities of West Bengal. Starting off selling from its sole\ndealership in Kharagpur, Bhandari Automobiles took off in the early 2000s.\nIn 2006, the Howrah dealership was born and joined the family.\nAs the dealership increased its foothold in the rural markets of Bengal, it\nyearned to enter the great \u201ccity of joy\u201d- Kolkata. In 2010, we added the\neluded crown and the dealership at Gariahat was born. Through all these\nchanges, including adding new buildings and renovating existing properties\nto better serve the community, Bhandari Automobiles has maintained its\nfocus on personal relationships. Our newest baby, the dealership at\nSreerampore, was added in 2014 and has brought us a great joy as we\n\nfurther penetrate into the lap of West Bengal. With employees who have\nbeen with the company for more than a decade and a history that stretches\nback for decades, Bhandari Automobiles has become a pillar of the\ncommunity. Though the going hasn&#39;t always been easy, Bhandari\nAutomobiles Group&#39;s focus on customer service has seen them through\nthick and thin, and while others have failed, they have flourished. If you&#39;ve\nbeen looking for a dealership that knows what it is to put the customer first,\nstop by any one of Bhandari Automobiles dealerships or extension outlets\nand enjoy the world-class machines from Maruti Suzuki\u2019s stable.\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-50f6cd0 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"50f6cd0\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-561d677\" data-id=\"561d677\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8db27e4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8db27e4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Director's Message<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa134f2 elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"fa134f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c33c896 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c33c896\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOur family is proud of the many accomplishments of the Bhandari Automobiles since its founding\nin 1979, and we are especially proud of the people who make it a successful organization and a\ngreat place to work.
