Introduction

A category we know by hand.

Firozabad has been making glass since the Mughal era. Today, fifty kilometres south of Agra, it houses India's only large-scale hand-blown glass cluster — chandeliers, crystal, decorative glass, all furnace-fired at temperatures the Chinese mass-glass industry doesn't touch.

Our largest chandelier shipment last year was a 1,200-piece order for a hotel group across three Durban and Cape Town properties — six chandelier designs, custom-coloured glass, individually crated. Lead time forty-five days from PO. Damage rate at destination: zero.

How this category
moves across Africa.

Hospitality and luxury retail. Custom chandelier commissions are our specialty.

Every African market we ship into has its own buying rhythm. Furniture refits in Lagos run on different cycles to hotel build-outs in Mombasa or chain retail launches in Johannesburg. Our export teams track these cycles so production windows line up with sell-through, not the other way around.

/ Packaging

Built for 35-day
ocean transit.

Four-stage export packaging protocol, refined over twenty-five years and three thousand containers — designed for African port handling realities, not showroom shelves.

Stage 01

Inner protection

Individual wrapping in tissue, foam or air-cell — per product fragility. Anti-rust treatment on metals; humidity sachets on hygroscopic items.

Stage 02

Inner cartons

5-ply corrugated inner cartons with internal dividers. Cartons sized for one-person handling at African distributor warehouses.

Stage 03

Outer cartons / crates

7-ply outer cartons or ISPM-15 fumigated wooden crates for fragile items. Steel-strapped & corner-protected.

Stage 04

Container loading

Block-and-brace technique. Desiccants per CBM. Container photo manifest at door-close — sent to you on dispatch day.

Bulk pricing

FCL discounts
that scale.

Volume contracts get locked-in rates for ninety days. Mixed-category containers count toward total volume — you don't have to take a single SKU to hit the discount band.
