As famous Australian writer Randa Abdel Fattah said,“We are, at almost every point of our day,immersed in cultural diversity: faces, clothes, smells, attitudes, values, traditions, behaviours, beliefs, rituals.” Interestingly, our country is embellished with endless diversity in terms of languages, religious beliefs, arts, crafts, customs and traditions, which makes it as 'a Mini World.' Even in wearing bangles, which is a main part of Indian women's fashion, there are varieties of customs and traditions involved. Thus, from North Kashmir to South Kanyakumari, people use multiple traditional products according to their occasions and customs. But amidst today’s increasing urbanisation and fast moving life, many Indians are struggling to find their traditional attires, ornaments and other products for respective occasions; both the online and offline stores don't provide much authentic products. This huge necessity for traditional products among millions of Indians as well as many craft enthusiasts around the world motivated Sigeeka.com, an Indian e-commerce platform to

deliver Indian traditional products at door steps. Simmi Kumar, CEO, Sigeeka shares, “Adored by our country’s craftsmanship and legacy in traditional and local ornaments, silks and other products, Sigeeka wants to bring these Indian Specialties and Uniqueness at a Click away. Sigeeka is an Indian brand that is nurtured by the best creativity, love for Indian traditions and continual customer support.”

With Sigeeka, the team tries to fortify every Indian’s link with Indian heritage.

Simmi adds that, “We aim to make Indian heritage, beauty, rituals and beliefs known to everyone in this world by delivering quality products accord ing to customer needs. Let’s take the example of bangles. Bengali and Bihari married women need Shakhapola, while Lahathi is worn by Bi hari and UP ladies.
