Who you're dealing with
Deepak Radhakrishna
I'm a civil engineer. For the past year I've run a wet-mix batching plant — process equipment on a working floor, with the wear, downtime and supply-chain problems that come with keeping machinery productive day after day. Before that, I ran small-scale import/export and e-commerce operations, where I learned the mechanics of international trade at a size where mistakes were survivable.
Valeron Packtech is what I've chosen to build with that background: a merchant export business for packaging machinery, run by someone who reads a machine the way you eventually will — by what it costs to keep it running, not by what it costs to sign for.
I think like an operator, not a salesman. I'd rather talk you out of the wrong machine than close you on it, because the machine that breaks down on your floor becomes my problem too — through the warranty, the spares pipeline and the support I've built into how this business works.
I won't pretend this is a decades-old trading house. It isn't, yet. Valeron Packtech is new and deliberately small, and I'm building it from scratch — which means early buyers work directly with the person who inspects their machine, on terms designed from the first order to protect them. Day to day, I work with buyers in clear English, over WhatsApp, email and call.

Discipline
Engineering background
Civil engineer. I evaluate machinery on specification, build quality and total cost of ownership — not on a brochure.
On the floor
Plant operations
About a year running a wet-mix batching plant — first-hand experience of what downtime and worn parts actually cost a producer.
In trade
Cross-border experience
Earlier hands-on work in small-scale import/export and e-commerce — the documentation, logistics and payment side of moving goods across borders.
