Ethnic wear // Mumbai, India

Suta

Suta makes sarees and blouses with an emphasis on handwoven textiles and contemporary styling. Founded by sisters Sujata and Taniya Biswas, it developed as an online-first business before expanding into physical retail. The founders describe a deliberately bootstrapped approach, financing growth through their savings and the business's own earnings.

Why we're watching

Its founder-financed retail expansion offers a useful counterpoint to venture-funded approaches to building contemporary ethnic-wear brands.

Funding

We couldn't find publicly reported funding for this company when we checked.
