Founded by IIT & IIM(A) professionals along-with industry veterans, Tumbledry is a laundry & dry-cleaning solutions start-up which aims to bring ease to the life of the new age customers, through a chain of live laundry & dry-cleaning. The team is a mix of young energetic business leaders & veteran industry experts working together to revolutionize the unorganized laundry service provided currently by maids, dhobis & other small stores into an organized, professionally managed retail & e-commerce service. The two Co-Founders Gaurav Nigam and Navin Chawla have 40 years+ of work experience between them,at leadership positions like COO, Product Head, and Business Head in companies like Airtel, Reliance, Britannia & Lava.

It is during their professional excursions to USA, Europe & South East Asia they realized that laundry services are evolving into a major industry and most of the populace was outsourcing these services. "Whether you do it yourself or depend on others, laundry is an everyday challenge to be confronted on daily basis. Doing it yourself is very time consuming & additionally one has to go through the daily rigmarole of washing & ironing clothes with limited drying places. Outsourcing it to unorganized channels, is a considerable compromise on the wash quality & hygiene due to the low quality water & detergents used & mixing of your clothes with others while washing, not to mention the heavy toll it takes on the costly fabric. With Tumbledry, we aim to solve the laundry woes of the Indian consumers with the introduction of a world class laundry & dry-cleaning solution through Tumbledry stores."
