KDM Founder, Nilesh Mali is a true blue inspiration for millions of youngsters who are struggling to make a way towards success. The way he has harnessed the power of every little resource he had to achieve success is commendable and inspirational.
Being from a small district in Rajasthan, Nilesh Mali was just 18 when he moved to Mumbai. He wanted to do something big but had little in his hands. So he started with odd jobs in retail shops and then started trading electronic goods. Making most of the returns and moving towards success step by step, he built his own mobile accessory company named KDM.
Nilesh Mali founded KDM in 2011. According to Nilesh, KDM gives a lifestyle choice to people living in tier 2 and 3 cities. It manufactures affordable mobile chargers, earphones, speakers, and neck bands among others.
KDM has also been honoured with several prestigious honours. In Oct 2021, the company bagged ‘Rising Brand of the Decade’ award at the prestigious and acclaimed ZEE Business Excellence Awards 2021.
Speaking about the honour, Nilesh said, “We are honoured to receive the Rising Brand of a Decade award from a prestigious platform like Zee Business. KDM as a brand has been established as a leading lifestyle and mobile accessories brand for a decade. We are extremely proud to have developed a wide variety of products under mobile accessories and lifestyle segments which ranges from mobile chargers, earphones, speakers to headphones. We have a strong distribution network spread across India that has enhanced our journey of building India's largest and most innovative mobile accessories and lifestyle brand.”
