“We expect to do around Rs 75 crore in the current year in corporate readymade uniform business,” company’s president (marketing and sales) M B Raghunath said in a statement.
Mafatlal’s products will be available at the company’s family shops, uniform stores and retailers. The company which sells over 85 million meters of fabric per year, has also launched an e-commerce site for uniforms.
