Aggregate Warangal's GI durrie weavers into one design-led home-textile brand selling rugs and runners to urban decor and export buyers. The opportunity is brand and market access, not learning to weave.

Warangal Rural is home to the GI-tagged Warangal Durries handloom cluster and a deep traditional weaving skill base (both district atoms), but woven cloth mostly leaves as un-branded product captured downstream — the branded-home-textile gap. A producer company aggregating the GI weavers builds a curated rug, dhurrie and runner collection under the Warangal Durries GI mark, with contemporary colourways and sizing, and sells to urban home-decor retail, interior designers and export buyers at brand prices rather than weaver-gate rates. The work is brand and access, not manufacturing: design and colour direction, GI certification and quality grading, consistent sizing and finishing, photography and D2C/wholesale distribution, and export documentation for overseas buyers. The district's cotton belt offers nearby raw-material supply. Honest constraints: holding GI authenticity and quality consistency across many weaver households, working capital tied up in inventory, and the slow grind of building decor-buyer and export relationships. Buyers are home-decor and rug retailers, interior designers, curated craft platforms, and diaspora and export wholesalers.
