What Welspun Living does

Welspun Living Limited (NSE/BSE: WELSPUNLIV), incorporated in 1985 in Gujarat, India and headquartered in Mumbai, is one of the world's largest vertically integrated home textile manufacturers with a workforce of 26,000–30,000+ and operations across 50+ countries. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes towels, bed linens, bath rugs, carpets, and flooring solutions, holding the #1 position as home textiles supplier to the USA (per Home Textiles Today) and producing roughly one in five towels sold in the US. It runs integrated manufacturing at Anjar and Vapi in India, a $12.5M automated pillow plant in Ohio, an Andritz neXline Spunlace non-woven line in Hyderabad, and distribution/warehousing in Ohio, Tacoma, Virginia, and the UK (Christy regional HQ).

The business operates through three core verticals: Homes & Institutions (retail brands Spaces, Welspun, WelLiving, and the acquired luxury Christy brand with 170+ years of heritage; hospitality textiles for chains like Hilton, Marriott, and IHG); Welspun Flooring (SPC tiles, carpet tiles, broadloom, area rugs, artificial grass); and Welspun Advanced Textiles (spunlace and needlepunch non-wovens for femcare, filtration, automotive, and wipes). It is differentiated by 47+ patented technologies including Hygrocotton temperature-regulating yarn, Wel-Trak blockchain farm-to-shelf traceability (industry first), Nanocore allergen-barrier fabric (AAFA-certified), and CO2 Pure air-purifying bed sheets, supported by licensed brands (Martha Stewart, Wimbledon, Scott Living, Disney).

The revenue model is primarily enterprise B2B (quote-based, anonymous pricing) selling to global retailers and hospitality chains, complemented by licensing royalties (Christy, Martha Stewart, Wimbledon) and an emerging D2C channel (spaces.in, welspunliving.com, franchise retail). FY26 revenue was Rs 9,399.11 crore (~$1.1B), with 61% US exposure and a marquee customer base including Walmart, Target, Costco, IKEA, Macy's, Tesco, JCPenney, Kohl's, Amazon, Wayfair, Bed Bath & Beyond, and HomeGoods. Welspun is publicly listed, chaired by B.K. Goenka with CEO & MD Dipali Goenka, and has achieved #1 global ESG ranking in S&P Global's 2025 CSA with a score of 90/100.
