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.

Empowering Sustainable Agriculture: Welspun Living’s Holistic Approach This post delves into Welspun Living’s (WLL) innovative project, Wel-Krishi, which is transforming the cotton farming landscape in India through sustainable practices and empowering farmers. Welspun Living Limited (WLL), formerly known as Welspun India Limited, is making significant strides in promoting sustainable agriculture through its Wel-Krishi project. Under this initiative, WLL is dedicated to supporting and training farmers in cotton-growing states such as Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Telangana, with the aim of enhancing their livelihoods and living standards while fostering sustainable development. Through systematic training, education, and sensitisation efforts, WLL aims to increase farmers’ income by boosting productivity and reducing production costs. Empowering Farmers and Enhancing Yields Wel-Krishi has positively impacted over 26,000 farmers across 390-plus villages, covering 2.5 lakh acres of land, with a special focus on empowering women farmers. Notably, about 2,500 women farmers have benefited from the project, contributing to the improvement of the lives of approximately one lakh farm workers. Through the project, WLL has achieved a remarkable 13% increase in yield for farmers, coupled with a commendable 10% reduction in production costs. This reduction includes a 14% decline in fertilizer costs, 13% decrease in fertilizer use, 11% reduction in water consumption, and a 19% dip in pesticide expenses. Integration of Technology and Partnerships WLL’s commitment to sustainable agriculture is further exemplified through its strategic partnerships and adoption of technology. The company leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to provide farmers with crucial insights into seed quality, weather forecasts, and soil conditions, thereby enhancing crop productivity and quality. Additionally, WLL has collaborated with organisations like the Better Cotton Initiative (BCI) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare to create a self-sufficient ecosystem for growers, ensuring adherence to global standards and certifications. Environmental Conservation and Renewable Energy Beyond agriculture, WLL is actively engaged in environmental conservation efforts. The company has implemented zero freshwater initiatives, including sewage treatment plants and rainwater harvesting, to conserve water resources and provide clean water access to local communities. Through innovative approaches, such as converting food waste into biogas and utilising sewage sludge as a source of fuel, WLL aims to reduce its carbon footprint and promote sustainability. Notably, the company has already invested in a 30-megawatt solar plant and aims to achieve 100% renewable energy usage by 2027. Analyzing the Impact and Future Outlook WLL’s comprehensive approach towards sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship underscores its commitment to social responsibility and long-term sustainability. By empowering farmers, promoting eco-friendly practices, and embracing renewable energy, WLL is not only enhancing agricultural productivity but also contributing to environmental conservation and community welfare. Looking ahead, the company’s continued focus on innovation and partnerships is poised to drive positive change across the agricultural landscape while creating lasting value for stakeholders.
