Business Description:Peekaboo Patterns is a store that deals exclusively with children's furnishing, and caters to the needs of parents looking at making their childrens' rooms special and unique. Started by entrepreneur Garima Agarwal in 2005 the store is located in Chennai and has about 800 clients in India and abroad.
While Garima considers window dressing her forte, the store has a host of things to offer. One can choose from a range of curtains, blinds, throws, cushions, bed linen and more. The most interesting aspect of the store however is that along with ready merchandise, products are also customised to suit the requirements and tastes of the customer. Thus each Peek-a-boo product is unique and innovative.
The store has already forayed into furniture and bathroom tiles for children's rooms. Garima is looking at establishing two new stores in Coimbatore and Hyderabad in the next six months, and hopes to add another four in the next two years.
