Incorporated in 1900 by Mr. Pestonji Edulgi Polson, primarily as a Coffee manufacturing
Company, Polson diversified into other business activities including diary, agriculture,
pharmaceuticals, leather chemicals and Real Estate. With Government policy reserving the
dairy sector for the Cooperative sector, Polson being a private organization was forced to
end its dairy activities. 

With its manufacturing operations spread over 14 acres and located on the foothills of the
historical fort Vishalgad, this unit began its operations in 1906 by setting up the first and
only Myrabolam Extracts manufacturing facility, primarily servicing the Indian Railway
Authorities by substituting an import. Wattle Extract for water treatment and in a
secondary application for the leather tanning industry specialized in Vegetable based
tanning.

Over the years the primary focus changed and the company became a leading supplier of
natural tannin materials and Eco-friendly leather chemicals of Indian origin to the
international leather industry. Today the company has a diversified product range being
manufactured in 3 state of the art factories and has developed, established and maintained
an untarnished track record of consistently meeting international quality standards and
boasts of a high profile customer base, which include several multinational companies in
practically every country in the world.
