The manufacturing-focused design-to-delivery startup Qckin has been acquired by fashion supply chain platform Fashinza.
Fashinza claims that the acquisition is a key step in its strategy to combine specialized manufacturing with technology-led sourcing, allowing international fashion brands to go from design to production more quickly and affordably. Additionally, the company is strengthening its manufacturing ecosystem through captive facilities for a more resilient supply chain as brands diversify their sourcing strategies in the face of changing trade dynamics and geopolitical shifts.
As part of the deal, the founders of Qckin will continue to oversee operations and collaborate closely with Fashinza to expand specialized manufacturing throughout Bangladesh and India, concentrating on high-demand categories like woven tops, shirts, T-shirts, jeans, and pants.
With plans to gradually increase manufacturing capacity, the Qckin facility will initially concentrate on shirts and woven tops. Working with top domestic and international brands like Shein, Reliance Retail, Myntra, and The Bear House, Fashinza recently turned a profit thanks to rapid expansion in its European business.
Fashinza is establishing itself as a technology-driven manufacturing partner as global supply chains change, and it intends to grow through acquisitions and strategic alliances across three to four locations in India.
Srinivasan Premkumar and Manojkumar Mahaveer Patil co-founded Qckin, a Bengaluru-based startup that specializes in retail trade with an emphasis on fashion and apparel, in March 2025.
Pawan Gupta, Abhishek Sharma, and Jamil Ahmad founded the AI-powered B2B clothing manufacturing marketplace Fashinza in Gurugram in 2020. By offering complete design-to-delivery solutions with low minimum order quantities (MOQs) and transparent, sustainable, ethical, and quick production, it simplifies the supply chain for fashion brands. In March 2023, Mars Growth Capital and Liquidity Group provided the company with $30 million in working capital funding.
