Speaking about the expansion, Lokendra Ranawat, CEO of WoodenStreet says, “The diversity of India makes it difficult to attach a stereotypical category of furniture to its people. This is why we aim to bring a variety that caters to every Indian furniture need, along with a host of other services such as interior designing, décor accessories and furniture customization”.

He further elaborates. “Every furniture piece carries the essence of diversity, handcrafted by Indian artisans using the best of Indian woods and other raw materials.”

WoodenStreet will continue its southward expansion by erecting multiple stores in the upcoming 12 to 18 months. The company currently operates 25 brick-and-mortar stores across 15 major cities of India, delivering a range of over 10,000 furniture and décor products to over 300 Indian cities.
