KhaDigi was conceptualized in 2015 when founder Umang Shridhar took part in a nation level competition - Design Sutra, which was organized by the Ministry of Textiles and National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT). In 2017, the idea blossomed to become a social startup with an aim to provide better livelihood and glory to khadi artisans, weavers, and craftsmen and create a direct dialogue between them and buyers. KhaDigi recognizes the challenges handloom craftsmen are facing and is implementing well-thought-out and strategic solutions to overcome these challenges. It is unwearying channeling its efforts to alleviate the Indian craft scene.
