What does ORIMA mean?
People often ask us what our name, “ORIMA” (pronounced “o-ree-ma”) means. Before the company began, a name was sought that was unique and that was inspired by our field of expertise – Organisational Improvement and Market Research. ORIMA was formed as an amalgamation of these words.
Since then, we have discovered that ‘orima’, in the ancient Dravidian (South Indian) language means “friendship” and “harmony”.
