From precision fixture manufacturing to meticulous installation, WaveRider played a vital role in balancing modern retail functionality with the heritage charm of the space, at the MILAAP store in Kolkata.
Adding another feather to their cap, WaveRider Marketing Solutions recently completed an iconic retail project with the MILAAP store project in Kolkata. Residing within a 126-year-old heritage structure, MILAAP is a showcase of what’s possible when a heritage structure is thoughtfully restored and transformed into a modern retail destination.
Located at Shakespeare Sarani, Kolkata, MILAAP spans 12,000 sq. ft. and brings together Rare Rabbit, Rareism, Rare’Z, and Rare Ones under one roof.
From precision fixture manufacturing to meticulous installation, WaveRider played a vital role in balancing modern retail functionality with the heritage charm of the space. Every detail, every curve was carefully crafted to preserve the grandeur of the past while delivering to the demands of contemporary retail.
Sharing his thoughts on the project, Naren Kashyap, Founder of WaveRider Marketing Solutions, said:
“MILAAP was not just another project for us – it was a responsibility to contribute to the revival of a heritage landmark while ensuring that the retail experience matched international standards. Our team’s dedication and craftsmanship made it possible to blend legacy with modernity seamlessly.”

MILAAP was certainly all about driving memorable brand experiences, one enriched with heritage and elegant aesthetics and for WaveRider, it was about partnering with the client to continue an architectural legacy. As WaveRider says, “Our name has been etched in name plate of the brand as a partner.”
