D2C brand Mirraw eyes Rs 125 crore this fiscal, eyes US, UK and Australia expansion

The bootstrapped ethnic apparel brand’s immediate focus is on establishing offline stores in India

New Delhi: Mumbai-based D2C ethnic apparel and fashion brand Mirraw eyes a revenue of around Rs 125 crore in the ongoing financial year (FY) 2023-24, an increase of over 20% compared to the last year, its top executive told IndiaRetailing.

In addition, the D2C brand has chalked out a robust growth plan. “We have several strategic initiatives in place, including the introduction of new product lines, enhancements to our marketplace platform and an increased focus on domestic markets,” said Shailesh Jain, co-founder of Mirraw.

In the first quarter (Q1) of the calendar year 2024, Mirraw saw a 25% growth from February to March driven by marketing campaigns and the launch of newer collections.

“Sales were steady as we continued to build on the strong performance from the holiday season, reflecting a growing interest in our new collections and seasonal promotions,” said Jain.

The company now focuses on growing its presence in India through offline stores. “We are particularly looking to capitalize on the southern part of India, where there is a rich tradition of ethnic wear and a strong demand for high-quality, culturally relevant products. This region represents a significant growth opportunity for us,” Jain added.

Once the bootstrapped company establishes a strong presence in the country it will turn its attention to international expansion.

“Once we have solidified our presence in the domestic market, we plan to expand into key international markets such as the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia,” said Jain.

In addition, the company also plans to continue to focus on tier 1 regions across the country. In 2023, its top-selling products varied between domestic and international markets. Jewellery was the top-selling category whereas Salwar Kameez and Anarkali suits were the most popular in the international market.

“Going forward, we are excited to broaden our focus to include men’s and kids’ wear as well as adding diverse designs in categories such as leggings, bags, and footwear, to meet the evolving needs of our customers better,” added Jain.

The company is also working on the premium segment with Mirraw Luxe with plans to launch luxury ethnic wear and designer collections.

Being a digital-first company Mirraw is strong on technology working with leading service providers to improve operational efficiency. “In terms of order management, GoKwik, a Delhi-based e-commerce enabler company has been helping us reduce the Return to Origin (RTO),” said Jain.

Mirraw also uses GoKwik’s advanced analytics capabilities to make data-driven decisions to drive business growth.

“GoKwik’s Cash on Delivery (COD) intervention feature has been instrumental in driving more prepaid orders. By incentivizing prepaid orders and offering benefits such as discounts or waived COD charges, users are encouraged to opt for prepaid payment methods, resulting in a smoother transaction process and improved order fulfilment efficiency,” added Jain.

Eagle Labs launches impirica CBD brand

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Eagle Labs has launched impirica, a new brand of CBD intended to eliminate consumer fear, and increase confidence, in trying the exciting new cannabidiol category. Michael Law Although most Americans have now heard about CBD, many are very confused and concerned about product quality. This is inhibiting trial in the category and holding back conversion into sales. In fact, a 2017 study by Johns Hopkins University found that two out of three CBD products on the shelf did not contain the amount of CBD reflected on the label. Furthermore, in 2018 and 2019, the FDA sent notices to a substantial number of CBD manufacturers advising them of serious concerns about product quality or egregious medical claims. The impirica brand looks different than most CBD brands — the brand name itself connotes testing and trust, says Eagle Labs chief commercial officer Michael Law. “It doesn’t use the traditional category colors of browns and greens, and you won’t find a hemp lea
