About Snitch
Established in 2020 as a direct-to-consumer (D2C) brand, Snitch has swiftly emerged as Indias premier fashion brand. Our aspiration is to become the ultimate choice in fashion for men, seamlessly blending online and offline experiences. Notable achievements include our standout appearance on Shark Tank India Season 2, where we clinched a landmark all-Shark Deal, setting us apart in the industry. Moreover, we have successfully raised 110 crore in our Series A funding round led by SWC Global and IvyCap Ventures, and have now closed our Series B round with an incredible 320 crore ($40 million) led by 360 ONE Asset, with participation from IvyCap Ventures, SWC Global, Ravi Modi (Manyavar Group), and other marquee investors.
