History
Established in 2010.
Ours is a classic American story. Highly educated professionals, Sid and I, (Arch) were senior managers in our respective fields when we decided to change direction. We wanted a better life for our two college-bound children--Karishma and Ashrey --so, in 2005, we immigrated to the United States. We didn't set out to start a business. When Sid's employer declared bankruptcy in 2010, we decided to go into manufacturing full-time and launched AKAS (for Archana, Karishma, Ashrey, and Sidharth). After all, America is the land of opportunity! Our mission was to make textiles in America. Within a couple of years our fabrics were selling well, we were looking to expand, and there it was--the opportunity to buy an in-trouble textile company in Canada called Wazoodle. We made the leap and never looked back. Today Wazoodle is the culmination of everything we hold dear: Mother Earth, family, quality, jobs, and service.
