We’re Nimbu, and while you may know us as a kidswear brand born in Singapore, the truth is—our story began in India. This isn’t just a product launch for us; it’s a homecoming.

Our founder, Kriti, was born and raised in India, surrounded by soft cotton kurtas, mango-stained summer days, and handmade clothes stitched by loving hands. These memories shaped the vision behind Nimbu. Singapore became the platform where our ideas took flight, but India has always been the heart of who we are.

And now, with www.nimbukids.in, we’re beyond thrilled to bring our thoughtfully made, story-rich, sustainably created kidswear back where it belongs—home.

From Indian Roots to Singapore Streets

Kriti with Her Beloved Grandparent

Yes, our journey started in Singapore. But before that, it began in an aangan in Kanpur. Barefoot laughter, hand-me-down dresses made by amma, the earthy smell of monsoon baarish—these are the childhood moments that built the foundation for Nimbu.

When our founder moved to Singapore and became a mother, she searched for kidswear that carried the same softness, soul, and cultural warmth. But the market offered either mass-produced fast fashion or uninspired basics. That gap led to something new. It led to Nimbu.

Why We Started Nimbu

We didn’t start Nimbu just to fill wardrobes. We started it to fill a gap—between fast fashion and mindful parenting, between generic clothes and meaningful designs, between style and soul.

We believe clothes can tell stories. They can teach children about the planet, about kindness, about culture. We wanted Nimbu to be that bridge—a way to dress kids in pieces that are safe, breathable, sustainable, and beautiful.

Back to Our Roots: Launching in India

In 2025, Nimbu is taking an important step. We’re officially launching in India. But for us, this is not just entering a new market. It’s coming back to where it all started.

India is home to the weavers who craft our cottons, the artisans who bring our designs to life, and the values that shaped us. It’s also where families are beginning to ask more from the brands they support. More transparency, more comfort, and more soul.

Indian parents today are looking for more thoughtful alternatives to fast fashion. They want kidswear that’s safe for the skin and kind to the planet. That’s where Nimbu fits in. We’re proud to bring our signature circular fashion model to India, offering clothing that tells a story, lasts through childhood, and treads lightly on the earth.

Tradition Meets Modern in Every Stitch

We’ve blended the old and new with care. Think heritage prints in contemporary cuts, breathable silhouettes perfect for Indian summers, and adjustable features that grow with your child.

Each piece on www.nimbukids.in is made with premium cotton, dyed with natural hues, and stitched in fair-wage workshops.

A Brand New Chapter Begins

This isn’t just a launch. It’s the start of a brand new chapter for Nimbu.

In Singapore, we’ve grown as a digital-first brand but have worked hard to bring in-store experiences for our customers too with store locations like in the famous Orchard Road shopping district and City Hall central business district in Singapore. From in-person pop-ups to community-based shopping events, we want families to experience Nimbu in real life. To touch our fabrics, hear our stories, and become part of our growing family.

Our store in Singapore – a space where conscious brands come together to inspire sustainable living.

As one of the most exciting new brands in India, we’re not here to sell fast. We’re here to stay, to build, and to grow with intention.

Conclusion: Rooted in India, Growing with You

India is where our founder was born. It’s where our fabrics are woven. It’s where our artisans live and where our values began. This isn’t a new territory for us—it’s a return to where our heart has always been.

At Nimbu, we’re proud to join the community of the best kids clothing brands in India. But more than that, we’re proud to offer something honest. A brand that combines the charm of tradition with the simplicity of modern design. A brand that makes parenting more joyful and shopping more meaningful.

To every Indian family looking for more than just cute clothes
"Welcome to Nimbu!"

We’re not just launching in India. We’re coming home.
