Founded in the historic city of Meerut in 1983, The Rug Republic (TRR) has transformed from a humble mom & pop rug factory into a globally renowned brand. With an indomitable spirit, an entrepreneurial vision, and the power of two talented weavers, TRR began its journey by serving the local community. Today, our legacy of quality craftsmanship and distinctive design reach 92 countries across six continents.
In 1991, the brand's trajectory took a transformative turn as we ventured into international markets, establishing valuable relationships with world-class brands. This brave step sparked a journey of exponential growth, propelling our unique amalgamation of traditional Indian craftsmanship and contemporary global aesthetics into millions of homes worldwide.
In 2013, we revolutionized the traditional manufacturer model by launching The Rug Republic. As a brand, TRR is dedicated to enabling small retailers to offer world-class products, free from the constraints of long lead times and high MOQs. Our commitment to our clients' unique needs, reliability, and superior service remain the driving forces behind our success.
A tour through our portfolio reveals the constant churn of creativity from our dynamic design studio. This creative powerhouse amalgamates customer inputs and global trends, curating theme-based collections regularly. With a vibrant portfolio boasting thousands of designs, hundreds of fresh additions grace our catalog each season, ready to beautify homes across the globe.
Our impressive infrastructure is sprawled over two million square feet, housing everything from weaving looms to container stuffing points. We boast of numerous tufting stations, an in-house laboratory with cutting-edge testing equipment, and an array of proprietary production planning and control software. To maintain impeccable quality control, each rug is bar-coded throughout the production process.
In an industry where economies of scale are challenging to achieve, TRR has transitioned into an industrial-scale organization underpinned by robust management systems. An ERP-enabled manufacturing process brings technology to our handmade manufacturing practices, reflecting our brand's commitment to continuous innovation.
At the core of our success are our people and our commitment to ethical practices. We place a premium on preserving human dignity, fostering social justice, and protecting the environment. We take pride in our complete abandonment of child labor, our collaborations with NGOs like Child Relief & You (CRY), and being among the first companies in the trade to achieve ISO 9001 & ISO 14001 certifications.
Our passion for innovation, commitment to quality, and social responsibility have been recognized nationally. Sharda Exports, the backbone of The Rug Republic, was honored among India’s top 25 'Best Workplaces Building a Culture of Innovation by All’ and 'Best Workplaces in Manufacturing.'
As we continue to flourish and expand, we are committed to reinventing and improving people, processes, practices, and infrastructure. This dedication to continual improvement allows us to consistently meet the needs of our diverse global customer base. The Rug Republic stands as a testament to our commitment to quality, timeliness, and a deep understanding of our customers. We will persist in setting new standards for floor fashion, crafting masterpieces that not only adorn homes but carry the promise of the TRR brand.
