Lakshmi Mills was established in the year 1910 by the visionary and pioneer late G. Kuppuswamy Naidu.

The history of Lakshmi Mills is in many ways the history of the Textile Industry in Coimbatore. For close to a century Lakshmi Mills has contributed to the development of the industry by promoting self reliance, research, import substitution, exports and technology. The Company has also demonstrated its staying power by ensuring quality and customer satisfaction as the prime objectives. In fact, as a pioneer, Lakshmi Mills today is looked upon with respect and reverence as a company that paved the way for the rest to follow.

The Company celebrated its Golden Jubilee, Diamond Jubilee and Platinum Jubilee and is now gearing up for the centenary celebration by 2010.
