The trio spent three years to collect data and feedback from thousands and then came up with a product line, rebranding the company to Zlade in August 2018. They then moved into to an office and a warehouse in Pune.
Zlade now offers quality shaving products at affordable prices. The startup is also recognised by the Government of India and is part of the Startup India programme.
