What Optima Industries does

Optima Industries, operating commercially as Optima Bags, is a privately held Indian custom bag and corporate merchandise manufacturer founded in 1995 and headquartered at a 25,000 sq ft ISO- and SEDEX-certified production facility in Kundli, Haryana (Delhi region). The company operates a fully integrated in-house production stack covering design, prototyping, cutting, stitching, printing, embroidery and quality control, and serves more than 100 global brand and corporate clients — including Walmart, Disney, Steve Madden, Kenneth Cole, Skechers, Reebok, Swiss Military, Marks & Spencer, Aston Martin, Pfizer, Deutsche Bank, Wimbledon and Amazon — across 26+ countries with DDP export shipping. Its product portfolio spans custom-branded backpacks, totes, duffels, soft and hard luggage, drawstring and cross-body bags, custom thermoformed EVA cases, and adjacent corporate merchandise (T-shirts, notebooks, mugs). Optima complements its core contract manufacturing with two services-led revenue lines: a tiered Tech Pack Service (Mini/Basic/Advanced at $360/$1,280/$2,240, fully creditable against production orders) and a Brand Launch Program ($1,200/month) that onboards first-time founders. Distribution is hybrid — direct account-managed enterprise sales paired with a self-serve Shopify wholesale storefront — and pricing is factory-direct with a published lowest-price guarantee among comparable SEDEX/ISO manufacturers.
