About Us
Welcome to A.P Bag Bhandar, your premier destination for exquisite, handcrafted, and traditional bags that embody the essence of cultural heritage and timeless elegance. Our journey began with a passion for preserving traditional craftsmanship and sharing the beauty of handcrafted bags with the world.
Our Story
Founded in 2021 on 12th November by Abhinaba Sinha & Pamela Guha Biswas, our story is rooted in a deep appreciation for the artisanal traditions of West Bengal. Growing up surrounded by the vibrant colors, textures, and patterns of traditional craftsmanship, we were inspired to create a platform that would celebrate and preserve these timeless techniques.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between artisans and customers, providing a platform where every bag tells a story and every purchase supports local communities. We believe that every individual deserves to own a piece of cultural heritage, and we're committed to making that possible.
