Biba Apparels Pvt Ltd

We are situated at 9 Mandeville Gardens in Kolkata. This is a nice, leafy part of the city, and we’ve been here for a while now. Even though the name Biba is well-known, our daily life in this office is pretty down-to-earth. We spend a lot of time looking at fabrics and checking over designs. It’s a busy atmosphere with people always running between rooms with measuring tapes or stacks of cloth. The building has that old Kolkata feel to it, which we actually quite like. It’s not a cold, glass office building. We have windows that let in some light, and you can hear the birds outside when it’s not too noisy. Our team is a mix of people who have been in the garment trade for decades and some younger staff who bring in new ideas. We don't really have a strict corporate hierarchy here; we just all pitch in to get the orders out. Sometimes things get a bit chaotic when a new season is starting, but we manage to pull it together. We stay in this location because it’s central for our staff and easy for our partners to visit. It’s just our base of operations where we try to make sure everything looks right before it goes out to the stores. It’s a lot of hands-on work every single day, but we are used to it. We don't make a big deal out of it, we just get it done.
