In order to help micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) of Odisha reach global market, the Nalco would provide brand assistance to them, said Nalco CMD Dr TK Chand here on Saturday.
He was addressing an event organised by the Odisha Assembly of Small and Medium Enterprises (OASME). “If any MSME of our State has a high vision to reach the broad horizon, the Nalco will provide it brand support. They can use Nalco brand to sell their product at big size markets,” he said,
