Founded in January 2012 by late Ambareesh Murty and Ashish Shah, Pepperfry sells a wide range of furniture and other home products including mattresses, dining and bar furniture, carpets, appliances, garden and outdoor, among others on its website. It also has an offline presence through its franchise model.
Pepperfry earlier this year postponed its initial public offering (IPO) plans after engaging with bankers over the past year. On shelving IPO plans, Shah said the company will instead focus on growth and profitability in the current financial year.
The company has been preparing for its initial public offering (IPO) since early 2022. In line with this, it even converted itself into a public entity in May 2022.
Pepperfry competes with the likes of WoodenStreet, Arrivae, and Green Soul in the online furniture market.
