September 23, 2025 by Angelica Kopec

At She Knows Business (SKB), we are proud to celebrate our client Punar, a brand rewriting the future of textiles through sustainable innovation and luxury craftsmanship.

Gold-Winner of Clean + Conscious Awards

In 2025, Punar’s Artisan Handcrafted Sustainable Luxury Throw was awarded Gold in the Clean + Conscious Awards (Home category), alongside the coveted Editor’s Choice distinction. This award positions Punar as one of Australia’s leading sustainable luxury brands—proving that ethical production and circular design can thrive in mainstream luxury markets.

Named Top 25 Changemakers in the World by SUCCESS® Magazine

This builds on earlier recognition: in 2024, Priya was named one of the Top 25 Changemakers in the World by SUCCESS® Magazine, cementing her influence in driving global conversations about sustainability in fashion and textiles.

Cartier RedBox Member

Adding further prestige, Punar is also a Cartier Red Box Member, joining a powerful global network of innovators and changemakers.

Changing the World of Luxury Textiles

Punar is not just producing textiles, they are changing how the world defines luxury.

  • Sustainability as Standard: By using recycled yarns and traditional handloom techniques, Punar actively reduces textile waste while preserving cultural artistry.
  • Empowering Women: With over 70% of its workforce made up of women, Punar fosters equality, economic empowerment, and safe working conditions.
  • Global Collaboration: Bridging Australian innovation with Indian craftsmanship, Punar represents the best of ethical globalisation.
  • Luxury with Integrity: Their textiles embody the new era of conscious luxury—where beauty, purpose, and sustainability exist side by side.

Why It Matters

Consumers are shifting their loyalty towards brands that are purpose-driven, ethical, and transparent. Punar stands as proof that sustainable luxury is not only possible but profitable.

The Partnership with Angelica Kopec and She Knows Business

At She Knows Business, we believe in building profitable, scalable businesses that change the world. Angelica Kopec, as a trusted business advisor and mentor to Punar’s CEO, supports Priya Ravindra Kalyanimath in strategic decision-making, growth planning, and positioning Punar as a global leader.

Beyond strategy, the SKB team works closely with Punar across business operations, from streamlining backend systems to strengthening marketing, sales, and international expansion strategies. This holistic support ensures that Punar can focus on innovation and impact while scaling sustainably.

“Investing in a trustworthy team who understand your mission is a game changer. As a CEO, one of the best business decision I have made is to engage SKB experts. Their foundation is built with integrity, and trust which shows in everything they deliver.”
