About Nuuk

Nuuk is on a mission to Make Appliances Great Again. We’re building a new-age appliance company rooted in Nordic design, uncompromising quality, and engineering that simply works. Every product is designed to be beautiful, intuitive, reliable, and long-lasting—no clutter, no gimmicks, no shortcuts.

Founded by two second-time founders (ex-McKinsey; previously built a unicorn), Nuuk began as a Stanford d.school vision and is now one of India’s fastest-growing appliance brands. We are VC-backed, design-obsessed, and powered by a young, ambitious team redefining what consumer appliances should feel like.

If you care about building enduring brands and working at the intersection of design, business, and execution, you’ll feel at home here.
