3. Ardeshir Godrej

1868 – 1936

Indian master of Locks

Ardeshir started his career as a lawyer but soon realized that it was not his cup of tea. Whatever he did, he always looked at it from the perspective of business and that became the key for him to build his mammoth industrial empire. “One fine morning he was reading the daily news, and there was news that burglary in Bombay is increased and locks aren't proving useful as they should be. He looked that as a business opportunity and started to research about making locks. This venture of his just picked up. For this he is also known as the lock-master of India,” report KannanWrites.  Even after failing multiple times, the founder of Godrej groups never rested and continued his journey to entrepreneurial success.
