House of Kraft\u2019s Runner-up recognition reflects its journey of creating a globally relevant brand while retaining a strong connection with craftsmanship, culture and purposeful design.<\/p>\n

Building a Global Brand from India<\/strong><\/p>\n

House of Kraft is part of a dynamic group of companies driven by the intent to serve customers with richly crafted products and purposeful innovation. The company\u2019s vision extends beyond building a conventional consumer brand, with a focus on creating products that combine design, craftsmanship and contemporary global sensibilities.<\/p>\n

For Neha Khanna, the recognition represents an important milestone in the company\u2019s larger journey of building a brand with global relevance.<\/p>\n

Neha Khanna, CEO & Co-Founder, House of Kraft, said:<\/strong>
\u201cWe are honoured to be recognised as Runner-up at the Payoneer India Cross-Border Excellence Awards. For us, this recognition is not only about the growth of House of Kraft, but also about the possibilities that emerge when Indian craftsmanship, design and entrepreneurial vision are taken to global audiences. Our journey has always been guided by purposeful innovation and a belief that products can carry culture, creativity and conscious thinking across borders. This recognition encourages us to continue building a globally relevant brand from India while staying true to the values on which House of Kraft was founded.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

A Recognition of India\u2019s Expanding Cross-Border Ambitions<\/strong><\/p>\n

The awards come against the backdrop of India\u2019s growing international trade and services ecosystem. According to the information shared as part of the awards narrative, India\u2019s total exports reached a record $863 billion in FY2026<\/strong>, with services exports accounting for $421.3 billion<\/strong> during the period.<\/p>\n

The diverse pool of recognised businesses reflects the changing nature of India\u2019s export economy, with technology and services being joined by consumer brands, manufacturing businesses, aerospace companies, logistics enterprises, education platforms and other emerging sectors.<\/p>\n

For House of Kraft, the recognition comes as it continues to develop its identity as a global, purpose-led consumer brand from India<\/strong>, combining craftsmanship with contemporary design and an ambition to reach audiences beyond the country\u2019s traditional export markets.<\/p>\n

The company sees its journey as being driven not simply by commercial expansion, but by the larger opportunity to take Indian creativity, craftsmanship and design thinking to international consumers.<\/p>\n

With Neha Khanna at the helm alongside Vibhas Sen, House of Kraft continues to build on this vision\u2014creating products and experiences that seek to connect craftsmanship, culture, conscious design and global consumer aspirations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
