Bombay Swadeshi Stores

About Bombay Swadeshi Stores

In the heart of India's struggle for freedom, two giants, Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Sir Jamsetji Tata, conceived a revolutionary idea: a store that transcended mere commerce, aiming to sell dreams. Established in 1906, the Bombay Swadeshi Store, as it was originally called, was more than just a shop; it symbolised India's unwavering spirit. By promoting the idea of Swadeshi, the store showcased the importance of self-reliance, a message echoed by our freedom fighters. It was far from an ordinary retail establishment; it was a passionate proclamation of 'Make in India, long before the phrase gained popularity. From its modest beginnings, it evolved into a premier destination for fashion and lifestyle, cherished by Indians and recognised globally.
