The Yarn Bazaar is a managed B2B marketplace for yarn, founded by Pratik Gariya and launched in July 2019. It combines discovery, transaction handling, advisory, market intelligence and fulfillment for a fragmented Indian textile supply chain dominated by smaller businesses. The company’s proposition is operational rather than purely digital: buyers get quality, competitive cost and reliable delivery, while suppliers receive recurring volume and advance payment. Gariya said the marketplace had completed about ₹370 crore in transactions and had historically averaged roughly ₹20 lakh per order. The business raised ₹15 crore in a pre-Series A round and used the capital to expand its operations and technology teams, first shifting its base from Mumbai to Bangalore. Its next planned layer was supply chain financing through NBFC partners, allowing buyers to access credit while preserving supplier payment reliability. Those numbers describe transaction volume and order size, not marketplace revenue or profit.
