A Tradition of Entrepreneurship
Kewalram Chanrai Group started out as a family enterprise more than a century and a half ago when two brothers, Jhamatmal and Thakurdas Chanrai, established a small textile shop in Hyderabad, Sind. This was the beginning of our global enterprise and since then our portfolio has grown as we have blazed a trail in the world's emerging economies. Today, Kewalram Chanrai is a leading international group with more than 17,000 employees in 62 countries, comprising three
business groups and two associated public listed companies, spanning textiles, commodities, international trade, waste recycling and IT.
