Kaleidoscope: The art of giving curated gifts
Among the boxes launched by Kaleidoscope Creations, The Business Standard reviewed two standout selections, for him and for her
After graduating from the University of Toronto, Danisha Rahman Anam joined her family business as a marketing and branding specialist. While working on the annual corporate gift boxes for the company, she was quickly disappointed with the curated gifts scene in the city.
"We reached out to many vendors and all of them offered the same average-quality products. There was nothing exciting about the packaging either," Danisha said.
The disappointment accelerated during Danisha's wedding, where she struggled to make quality wedding dalas from local vendors. This frustration became the catalyst for her entrepreneurial journey.
