"Alok was established in 1986 as a private limited company, with our first polyester texturising plant being set up in 1989. We became a public limited company in 1993. Over the years, we have expanded into weaving, knitting, processing, home textiles and garments. And to ensure quality and cost efficiencies we have integrated backward into cotton spinning and manufacturing partially oriented yarn through the continuous polymerisation route. We also provide embroidered products through Grabal Alok Impex Ltd., our associate company. - That is how we have evolved into a diversified manufacturer of world-class home textiles, garments, apparel fabrics and polyester yarns, selling directly to manufacturers, exporters, importers, retailers and to some of the world’s top brands. - Alok has a strong foothold in the domestic retail segment through a wholly owned subsidiary, Alok H&A Limited, under the cash & carry model that offer garments and home textiles at attractive price points. - Alok also has an international presence in the retail segment through its associate concern, Grabal Alok (UK) Limited. This entity owns more than 200 outlets across England, Scotland and Wales vending value for money ranges for menswear, women-swear, children wear, footwear, home ware and accessories."
