Rooh Dream Catchers was co-founded by Shrutti Shah & Shahil Shah back in 2014. Before Rooh Dream Catchers took birth, they had already co-founded a start up called Rooh E-commerce. This start up was in the business of beauty and e-commerce. Back then they used to hire and train a lot of women staff from not so privileged or educated backgrounds for packaging & clerical work.

Today the brand has international presence in North & South America, Middle East & Europe.

Most of them now earn twice as much than the same family members who once suppressed them from working.

Rooh Dream Catchers started with 2 women artisans in 2014 and has grown the network to around 35+ women & growing…
