Say Hello to Jui Anvar, founder of ‘A Dot’, in Pune. Jui is an artist and a graphic designer who designs and sells a wide range of illustrated products. Her products include coffee mugs, beer mugs, metal bottles, coasters, t-shirts, wall frames, etc.
The roots of Jui’s idea go back to the time she was completing her graduation in Painting. She wished to turn her art into something that could be used or worn. According to her, it gave personality to the things around. She wanted to kill the monotony of everyday things and create something that had a vibe of its own.
Jui entered the market with her very own range of diaries and soon diversified into an array of products. Each design is hand-painted by her, which is later digitalized according to the product needs. Jui feels that this makes her brand different as a lot goes into each design. Jui now has a collection of over 200 designs.
Jui’s biggest hurdle was carving a niche for herself. Illustrations are an objective form of art and a large group of people does not relate to the designs. Jui ensures that her designs cater to the needs of both these groups and suites their individual taste.
Like every other small business, surviving the pandemic was a task. Her vendor closed down for almost 2 years and getting orders became difficult. But Jui’s grit and determination kept her going and she survived the lows in her business. In a short span of 3 years, Jui has successfully delivered over 200 products.
Jui’s determination led her to creating a place for herself in this saturated market. Show some love by commenting with a 🤗 emoji.
