1.1 ABOUT THE BRAND & FACTORY
From small and humble beginnings in 1980, Gini & Jony has come a long way;
it started with a Dream to build an empire in the realm of kids clothing; to build
a Brand that would stand tall and outshine all others. Being “Not Just Big But
the Very Best”.
The LAKHANI BROTHERS - 3 ordinary men who created the Gini & Jony brand.
They were three Ordinary men with an Extraordinary Vision.
A Vision to occupy the pinnacle in kids clothing.
A Vision to offer the best in quality, the latest in fashion trends and the
most comfortable in fit “Quality Never goes out of Fashion”.
The success of Gini & Jony can be attributed to 2 golden words that is a daily
mantra of the Lakhani Brothers “Thinking Big”. This mantra began way back in
1980 and continues even today.
In the early 80’s, the organized kids wear category was almost non-existent.
Gini & Jony was one of the foremost brands in kids wear. That actually helped
build the category of kids wear clothing.
BRAND EXTENSION OF GINI & JONY FOR INFANTS (0-2 Years)
Gini & Jony’s prominence in the market has grown twofold and with that a
much needed extension in Kid’s wear brings forth the collection for Infants
between the age group of 0-2 years. With the growing need of clothing among
kid’s wear is getting popular, we are introducing 3 categories in them i.e.
Sweaters, Caps & Bedding products. These products would be made out of
100% Cotton and will be manufactured by “Ludhiana Apparels Pvt. Ltd.”
LUDHIANA APPARELS PVT. LTD.
A sweater manufacturing Unit starting in Ludhiana that will be manufacturing
these 3 products in its first year of start-up for Gini & Jony. This manufacturing
unit will make complete garment with In-house Knitting.
