History of RangoliCollections

Years back the leather industry of Pakistan faced some major crisis and it was difficult to accept this huge failure of such a productive industry. Most of the cobblers and vendors working in this industry started switching their professions such as drivers, salesmen at shops and other such areas where their expertise were not even utilized. This was the time when our CEO decided to revive back this falling industry, this was a difficult task to achieve which required a lot of commitment and hard work, but most importantly gaining the trust of the cobblers and vendors was most important.

After a lot of struggle a group of cobblers were finally convinced to work with us. We started on a very small scale where we made shoes/boots and jackets for our friends and their mutual who lived abroad. They sent us pictures of shoes of their choice and we would try our best to make their products with the most genuine leather. The cobblers tried giving their best and the positive response from our customers encouraged them to do give their best. This was the time when we saw the revival of the leather industry of Pakistan. We experimented on unique and classic designs before bringing them on marketplace and made sure that our sizes, quality and designs were genuine and different.

We made our stores on different online marketplaces and gradually entered into the online business world. Since then RANGOLI COLLECTION  has made its name in the online world for selling high quality products and fastest delivery. We hope that our journey on this platform makes it cherish able for our customers!
