Arpit Aryan Gupta founded NG Apparels, a successful garment export business based in Ludhiana. Starting from a small factory, the company now generates $1.4 million annually. Arpit bootstrapped the business with $10,000 and has expanded the company to cater to global markets, primarily in the US, UK, Australia, and Europe. Despite early setbacks, including his father’s business loss in the 2008 crash, Arpit persevered, turning his clothing manufacturing venture into a thriving enterprise.
