consolidated its presence through the apparel value chain.1930 was a year the world
suffered a traumatic depression. Companies across the globe began closing down. In
UK and in India the textile industry in particular was in trouble. At about thistime,
Mahatma Gandhi championed the Swadeshi Movement and at his call, people from
all India began boycotting fine and superfine fabrics, which had so far been imported
from England. In the midst of this depression one family saw opportunity. The
Lalbhais reasoned that the demand for fine and superfine fabrics still existed. And any
Indian company that met this demand would surely prosper.

elegance to broad room battles and power launches the world over. “America’s shirt

Lee
Lee is just one instance where Arvind translated an international brand by creating a
local market for it. It’s the only brand in India to offer in seam lengths in each waist

shorts, skirts and T shirts complemented by a range of fine accessories such as caps,
belts, socks and bags. The brand is being marketed through 40 exclusive Lee stores in
more than 20 cities across the country.
Flying Machine:
Back in mid 80s, Indian jeans was something of a contradiction in terms of shoddy
imitations and small time regional brands ruled a tiny market which was when they
stepped in flying machine. The first Indian brand that measured up to international
standards and also one of the few that had a national presence. Flying machine went
on to become the number one brand in the country, in the process of kick starting the
dormant market of life.
New port:
There was time when jeans used to cost big money which was strange considering the
most of them were aimed at teenagers. That was before when Arvind came along with
new port. Their value for money brand which delivered on the promise of “good Jeans
for less”. It was the first pair of Jeans that a youngster could buy with his own pocket
money.
Today, Newport is by far the largest selling jeans brand in India which has made it
accessible to many consumers who would like to buy into the core value of Jeans
wearers. New port has increased its range of Jeans wear to include over dyed jeans,
gabardines Jeans, knit wear, woven shirts and socks thus making Newport a lifestyle
brand in the economy segment.
Excalibur:
Few things fit the demanding lifestyle of those who live in the fast lane. So they came
up with a wardrobe brand targeted at upwardly mobile executives including products
such as shirts, trousers, blazers,ties,socks and belts in easy care blends, all cut the
latest international styles and similar to international standards.
Made from easy care blends, Excalibur shirts and trousers are highly crease resistant
and retain their flawless shape for hours on end to give a fresh look.
Ruggers:
A golden opportunity to youngsters to get into Polo T shirts ,cotton trousers twills
Bermudas, belts and everything casual… They have created ruggers in order to offer
the consumers a unique casual wear product which will complement the Jeans wear
ranged in exclusive flying machine stores. The ruggers product range for men and
women is wide and strikingly casual designs and colors. The range for women is the
finest with tremendous content of creativity in both styles and colors.
All over India, people who lounged around in lungis have been offered an opportunity
to roam around in Jeans (just like all those cow boys of west).Thanks to the brand of
Ruff and Tuff which has probably been the world’s first ever brand ready to stitch
Jeans. With Ruf and Tuf, ready to stitch we understand the whole market. Millions of
people all over the country who till then had to make the imitations because they
could not afford the real thing Arvind gave them the quality the perfect fit and a brand
that they could relate to. All at the right price they went about it systematically right
down organizing, orienting tailors nationwide to rope them into the marketing
process.

types of washes are:

6. LEARNING EXPERIENCE
During my project work experience at ARVINDMILLS, I was fortunate enough to
have experienced first-hand and learned many different sides of what goes into a
project, the general process of how a project is initially planned, developed and
completed; as well as how much work and detail goes into every stage. Another
valuable lesson I have learned during these 4 weeks, were the many different types of
work an MBA Graduate performs, which in turn, have provided me with more insight
into the different types of roles and responsibilities that I could perform, as a HR &
Finance Manager. One main thing that I have learned through this internship is time
management skill as well as self motivation.
Overall, my work experience at ARVINDMILLS was positive. I was very happy with
the amounts of things that I have learned and experienced in the 4 weeks of doing a
Project with this company. I believe that Oxford College of Engineering should keep
this aspect of the MBA course as it does provide students with the experience needed
in order to find a job later on (even if the experience is over a short amount of time). I
ended up learning a lot more than I thought I would be able to in the time span. There
were many days that were busy where a tender deadline had to met or a client might
need something completed urgently, and these days were stressful to the point where
there were times I did have to stay back to get the project done. This in some ways
reminded me a lot of my late-night study sessions at university and how even in the
workplace during the project tenure.
