Origins of Sanjay

Three John’s bringing East and West together for over two decades

In 1999 three friends John Zhang, John McFedries and Jean-Pascal Steichen decided to become associates and to open a company specialising in subcontracting for western industrial partners. Sanjay was born. The name originated from ‘San’ meaning Chinese for three and ‘Jay’ for the three partners’ names. During this time Sanjay Ningbo (China) and Sanjay Christchurch (New Zealand) were opened.

Sanjay has expanded with offices around the world and now supplies products to the Americas, Europe and Australasia.
