About Us
Connecting hearts, honoring hands, preserving India's greatest treasures.
10,000+ Families
India's Most Trusted Artisan Marketplace
My Upalmart is India's premier e-commerce destination for authentic handloom textiles, traditional handicrafts, and ethnic clothing — sourced directly from master artisans across 25+ states. We are more than a marketplace; we are a cultural bridge.
Founded in 2020 in Varanasi — the ancient city of weavers — we set out with one unwavering belief: that the world deserves access to the finest handcrafted creations of India, and India's artisans deserve fair recognition and income for their extraordinary skill.
Every saree, every painting, every piece of pottery on My Upalmart carries the signature of a real human being — a master of their craft — not a factory floor.
