Products come in such classic colours, innovative textures and patterns, hence making it versatile in nature. The brand’s tagline, ‘Aap bhi Grado Peheniye Ek Baar, Phir Yeh Hi Pehnenge Aap Baar Baar’ hits the bulls eye because once you try their fabrics, you won’t feel like buying any other. I congratulate the entire GRADO team for the spectacular growth pace in just over a year. It is my honour to be associated with such a premium and prestigious brand and I look forward to doing more of such events with the team.” After an engaging session with the crowd, it was time for an enjoyable quiz titled ‘GRADO ke GYANI’ for all the retailers and wholesalers present at the event, with Mr. Amitabh Bachchan being the Quizmaster and Mr. Siddharth Kannan being the Moderator for the same.
