Kalyan Silks Bangalore sojourn

Kalyan Silks, the world’s largest silk sari showroom network, has for the first

time stepped out of Kerala to open a 30,000 sq. ft. showroom in Bangalore. The store was inaugurated by the Kerala-based premium silk brand’s two most popular ambassadors – Malayalam movie star Prithviraj and Kannada film actor Shivarajkumar.

The newly unveiled outlet offers a collection of around 0.2 million exclusive bridal saris and a vivid array of exquisite apparels for men, women and children. Moving ahead, the company plans to launch stores in Mangalore, Mysore, Hubli, Belgaum and Mumbai. The company had ventured outside India by opening an outlet in Dubai last year, and it now plans to launch several stores in Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Singapore.

Founded in 1909, Kalyan Silks owns India’s largest wholesale textile showroom and a string of looms in all major silk producing centres across the country. Kalyan Silks prides itself with world-class showrooms in Kochi, Thrissur, Palakkad, Kozhikode, Kannur and Kottayam. Kalyan Silks’ first international showroom was opened in Dubai last December. By end of 2012, the leader in textile retailing will further strengthen its presence by adding many more showrooms to its ever-growing network. The new showrooms will bring international ambience and amenities to Thiruvananthapuram and Thiruvalla. Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Singapore will be Kalyan Silks’ global destinations in the coming years.
