About Welspun Living
History
Welspun India, a key entity within the Welspun Group, which itself is valued at USD 2.7 billion as of March 2023 stands as one of the world’s leading manufacturers in the home textiles sector. It specialises in areas such as Bed, Bath, and Flooring. Renowned for being India’s top home textile exporter, Welspun supplies to 17 of the top 30 global retailers. The company has a significant global footprint, extending its reach to over 50 countries, including major markets like the USA, Canada, the UK, and Australia. Welspun India operates two state-of-the-art textile manufacturing units in Anjar (Gujarat) and Vapi.
The company’s journey began as a modest texturising unit named Welspun Winilon Silk Mills in Palghar district, launching operations on January 17th, 1985. By 1991, the company went public as Welspun Polyester India Limited through an initial public offering (IPO), later evolving into Welspun India Limited. In 1993, Welspun India established a terry towel facility in Vapi, Gujarat. The year 2000 saw the inception of Welspun USA as a wholly-owned subsidiary, focusing on understanding the American consumer through its New York City-based sales, design, and marketing operations.
In May 2005, Welspun India merged with Glofame Cotspin Industries Ltd, issuing new shares as part of the amalgamation. 2004-05 marked a significant expansion by establishing a new plant in Anjar, Gujarat, for producing bed linens and enhancing the Vapi facility for terry towels and other products. By 2005, Welspun had significantly increased its production capacity for Cotton Terry Towels.
2007 also saw Welspun India starting a bedding sets facility in Mexico. 2009 marked a restructuring phase, with the Sales & Marketing and Investment divisions being demerged into Welspun Global Brands Ltd. and Welspun Investments & Commercials Ltd. 2012 saw Welspun Global Brands becoming a subsidiary of Welspun India.
In December 2014, Welspun India unveiled a new, large-scale spinning facility in Anjar, Gujarat, doubling its spinning capacity and reducing external sourcing dependency. The year 2016 was another landmark, with the commissioning of India’s largest spinning facility.
In August 2016, the company brought challenges when a product specification issue with Target Corporation arose, leading to a comprehensive review of the supply chain by Ernst & Young LLP. 2017 was a year of diversification, with Welspun India venturing into flooring solutions and smart textiles, expanding its presence in the Middle East, Japan, Australia, and the EU.
In January 2018, Welspun incorporated Welspun Nexgen Inc. in the USA, focusing on e-commerce investments. The same year, Welspun India introduced Wel-Trak, a patented traceability process ensuring the transparency of cotton raw material supply chains.
2018 also saw Welspun India amalgamating Prasert Multiventure Private Limited, increasing its authorised share capital. In 2019, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Welspun India continued operations, adapting to global economic disruptions.
The company has consistently been recognised for its sustainability and CSR efforts, including being named one of the top 100 companies in India by ET-Futurescape in 2020. 2020 also saw an expansion in the Home Textile business and strategic investments in real estate in New York through its subsidiary.
