Founded in 2019 by Dushyant Gandotra, Divya Gandotra and Shivam Bhateja, Menhood offers a range of men’s grooming and lifestyle products, including trimmers, intimate perfumes, and moisturisers.
It competes with D2C brands such as The Man Company, Bombay Shaving Company and Beardo. The company went public in July this year, and its IPO was oversubscribed 157.5X.
The development comes months after FMCG major Emami purchased D2C men’s grooming brand The Man Company in an all-cash deal. Following the completion of the deal, Helios Lifestyle Pvt Ltd, the parent entity of The Man Company, became a wholly owned subsidiary of Emami.
As per an analysis by Inc42, the Indian beauty and personal care market is projected to become a $28 Bn opportunity by 2030, accounting for 7% of the overall ecommerce market.
