Our Story

The story of Indochine starts with the visionary collaboration of Dipendra Goenka, Nishit Bapna and Janet Xu, who united in 2004 with distinct skills and a shared goal.

Dipendra’s expertise in retail strategy and merchandising combined with Nishit’s and Janet’s deep understanding of supply chain intricacies, culminated into what is now close to a $1B full-service design, sourcing and manufacturing powerhouse. At the core of their success lies a fundamental belief — people first.

Central to their strategy is the unwavering commitment to seek the most cost-effective production countries. Indochine, however, takes this pursuit a step further by aligning it with a profound purpose.

Spanning over 20 countries, approximately 1,800 corporate employees and over 18,000 factory workers, Indochine has a commitment to people and impacting lives wherever it expands.
