Why I Chose to Build a Business That Bridges Indian Manufacturing & Global Brands

Do not index

For years, Indian manufacturing has been an open secret in global supply chains — capable, high-quality, and cost-effective. Yet, when international brands look for reliable suppliers, India often isn’t their first choice. Why?

Having worked closely with sourcing professionals and manufacturers, I’ve seen this challenge firsthand. While India produces some of the world’s finest textiles and leather goods, the industry often lacks the structured visibility that Western brands expect. This disconnect — between India’s manufacturing excellence and global brands’ sourcing needs — led me to start Maryadha.

The Problem: Perception vs. Reality

India is home to centuries-old craftsmanship, cutting-edge sustainability practices, and world-class factories that meet international compliance standards. Yet, despite these strengths, many Western buyers hesitate to source from India. Some common concerns I’ve encountered include:

Reliability & Communication Gaps — Brands worry about inconsistent timelines or unclear business practices.

Compliance & Sustainability Concerns — Despite India having many USD-certified and bio-based manufacturers, brands are unaware of these options.

Lack of Centralized Access — Unlike China, where massive sourcing platforms exist, India’s manufacturers often work independently, making visibility a challenge.

Bridging the Gap: The Vision Behind Maryadha

At Maryadha, our mission is simple: Redefine India’s manufacturing perception and give it the global visibility it deserves.

We do this by:

🛠 Connecting international brands with trusted, vetted manufacturers — ensuring transparency, compliance, and high-quality production.

🌿 Highlighting sustainable and ethical manufacturing options — so that brands can meet global sustainability goals.

📍 Creating a structured platform for sourcing in India — so brands don’t have to navigate a fragmented market alone.

The Future of Sourcing is Changing

With rising costs in China and a global push toward ethical sourcing, brands are increasingly diversifying their supply chains. India is well-positioned to take center stage — but only if its strengths are properly showcased. That’s where Maryadha comes in.

If you’re a brand looking for high-quality, sustainable, and cost-effective manufacturing especially in leather goods, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s build something great together.
