As a part of the initiative, Raymond will procure all India Khadi varieties and will send it to manufacturing plants for the final finishing process.

The new label, Khadi by Raymond, will be available at KVIC outlets, 'The Raymond Shops' and leading e-commerce portals across India beginning August 2017.
