From our small beginnings in 1860 as a textile trading company in India, the Group developed businesses in handicrafts and agricultural commodities. We have also grown beyond our borders and ventured into Africa, South America and Southeast Asia, making us a pioneer in these developing markets.
Today, the Kewalram Chanrai Group is a renowned global player with four distinct business entities. Being family owned and professionally led, the Group is committed to upholding the Chanrai family's values whilst expanding on the businesses through a strong entrepreneurial and pioneering spirit.
The textile industry, which started our path to becoming the success we are today, will always be close to our heart. From the early days of trading locally produced handloom fabrics in India, we have grown to become a significant textiles producer. PT Kewalram Indonesia is now the stronghold of the Group's textile division, with a large integrated mill consisting of spinning and embroidery production facilities. The plant, with a 4,000-strong staff, has the capacity to manufacture more than 54,000 tonnes of yarn each year to cater to the worldwide market. Our other businesses in distribution and financial services are also showing similar success.
