This is how our e-commerce platform, “Shopping in Kashmir” was born. We transformed Tawakkal Foods from an offline venture into an online platform with the goal of reaching the masses, and from “spices” we expanded this platform to the unique Kashmiri handicrafts (from carpets, to paper mache, to walnut wood, to pashmina work), beautiful Traditional Clothing (to pherans, to shawls) and much more, ensuring that the world experiences the beauty and richness of Kashmiri products.
Our website, shoppinginkashmir, is a golden doorway into the traditions, culture, and soul of Kashmir. We bring to you a curated collection that celebrates the legacy of our artisans and the stories behind each item. But this journey is not just about business, It’s about a dream to revive the dying arts of Kashmir, to retain the originality and authenticity of products, to stand as a beacon of hope for local artisans, and to uplift them as they preserve and showcase their craft. With each purchase, you become part of this beautiful revival journey, supporting families who rely on their heritage skills.
From a humble team of five, we’ve now grown and continue to expand as we venture online. As we look ahead, our aspirations are boundless. We also aim to nurture the talents of the unemployed youth in Kashmir, providing opportunities to their skills through our platform and creating a space where “traditional craftsmanship” meets “contemporary vision”. This is not just an online platform, it’s our heart, our heritage, and our hope for a brighter tomorrow.
Welcome to Shopping in Kashmir—Your journey into the soul of Kashmir begins here!
