Mumbai , Oct. 22 THE Italian Fagioli group, which specialises in heavy lifting equipment for civil, offshore, power and petrochemical industries, has decided to set up a $3-million manufacturing base in the Kandla Export Promotion Zone (EPZ). The company, which manufactures alternative lifting equipment, sees significant demand growth in this sector.
