Chumbak - Here Everything’s Better

According to industry body IAMAI, India's e-tail market is expected to grow 10 times from its current level to US$ 50 billion by 2020, primarily driven by better internet penetration and higher disposable incomes

Prominent factors that are helping in the growth of this segment include:

• A large young net savvy population (increasing internet penetration)
• Tremendous growth in smart phone users
• Young population

Chumbak is a quirky lifestyle brand which was founded in March 2010 by Vivek Prabhakar and Shubhra Chandra with a seed funding of INR 40 lakhs. Based out of Bengaluru, the company started its offerings with bright Indian souvenirs – mainly fridge magnets – in fun themes and colours.

Chumbak has evolved as a well established brand with a strong presence in Bengaluru, Mumbai and Delhi. Speaking of the birth of the company, the founders explain that they were bored of usual marble Taj Mahal replicas and handicrafts that were becoming the only options for souvenirs in India; so they thought that travellers need a better range that was catchy and very Indian as well. That’s how Chumbak evolved.

Chumbak started selling its products through Modern Brand Outlets (MBOs) and soon opened its first store in Bengaluru. The MBOs received feedback from customers that they wanted to see Chumbak’s entire collection under one roof. This led to Chumbak pop-up stores across malls in India.

When the company was started, its products were available only online.
