About Me

Taking a 50-year-old brand to market.

As Director – Sales & Marketing at Gardens Need Pvt. Ltd., I lead how a 50-year-old manufacturing company goes to market — its brand, its distributor network, and its national and international sales.

Established in New Delhi in 1976 and marking its 50th year in 2026, Gardens Need is a trusted manufacturer and exporter of high-quality garden products. My focus is turning that trust into reach: more distributors, more retail shelves, and more markets — built on dependable supply and long-term partnerships.

From national retail chains to global trade fairs, my work comes down to getting well-made products in front of the right buyers, and keeping them coming back.

"We support our partners through dependable supply, training, and long-term collaboration — building relationships rooted in trust and transparency."
