Our
STORY

"Life is all about making choices. The founder, Mr. Pramit Agarwal did not want to join his friends in US, way back in 1987 when he graduated from IIT Kanpur, because the thought while growing up was to stay with family as he was the only son. His father had a very successful business in temporary constructions but the thought of making something on his own was all pervading for him. A small stint at Hindalco, Renukoot and couple of small businesses in the intervening years led him to Kanpur again."

HOW
INDIA BRAIDS
WAS
BORN

The foundation for the unit was laid here way back in 1996. Catering to the segments in apparel, accessories like belt and bags, footwear, luggage and many more, we extended our premises to a modern factory in 2011. To attain an equilibrium in design and final product is quite challenging but very satisfying. This is made possible by the dedicated team via many trials and errors. Achieving that functional and sleek product for a customer looking for simplicity and vitality in production is a gratifying task.

Commitment to
QUALITY

The braided products are made in-house and also at home centers spread around the city so that the local production could participate and gain by using their outstanding talents. We maintain full control over the quality of the product by being involved at every stage of the making process because attention to details has been the core philosophy of our company. Weaving is carried out on high speed narrow fabric looms which essentially forms the backbone of our company’s production.

We have been a regular participant in the India International Leather Fair.

We participated in Lineapelle, Milan 2013

TESTIMONIALS

Ms. Julia Dreher

During my time as Design Manager for one of the UK's leading producers and importers of Fashion Accessories, I have had the pleasure of working with Pramit and his family at India Braids for many years.
Their care and attention to detail and consistent commitment to a high level of quality is unrivalled, as is their enthusiasm and dedication to delivering, on any challenge.
With a positive and progressive attitude they always succeed to fulfil the brief, and give one hundred per cent customer satisfaction. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
