Udupi, Jul 4: Strengthening its presence in the coastal Karnataka market, V K Furniture & Electronics, a trusted name in furniture manufacturing and consumer electronics, inaugurated its grand new showroom at Kadiyali-Kunjibettu in Udupi on Saturday July 4. The spacious outlet marks the company's sixth branch and its first showroom in Udupi district, following the success of its five branches in Mangaluru.
A subsidiary of the V K Group, the company has been serving customers across the coastal region for nearly 15 years by offering quality furniture and electronic appliances at competitive prices. Over the years, the brand has earned a reputation for manufacturing contemporary wooden and metal furniture while also dealing in leading consumer electronics brands.
Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Kota Srinivas Poojary was the chief guest and formally inaugurated the showroom by cutting the ribbon. The programme continued with the traditional lighting of the ceremonial lamp by the dignitaries.
Speaking on the occasion, MP Kota Srinivas Poojary said, “V K Furniture & Electronics is a trusted and customer-friendly brand. While the government may not be able to provide jobs to every poor person, Vittal Kulal has created employment opportunities for many. I wish V K Furniture & Electronics continued growth and greater success in the years ahead.”
Udupi MLA Yashpal Suvarna said, “On behalf of the people of Udupi, I thank you for establishing this store in our city. Udupi is growing at a rapid pace, and your investment is a valuable contribution to its development. I wish V K Furniture & Electronics and its entire team continued success and growth.”
Sai Radha Group Chairman Manohar Shetty said, “True success is not measured by the amount of money we earn, but by the number of employment opportunities we create and the lives we positively impact, and Vittal Kulal has succeeded in achieving this.”
Satish Kumpala, Dakshina Kannada BJP district president, said, “V K Furniture has become a household name in Mangaluru, with its products found in almost every home. I hope the same trust and popularity are achieved in Udupi as well, and I urge the people of Udupi to extend their wholehearted support to V K Furniture.”
Among those present were K M Shetty, chairman of the V K Group; Alexis Castelino, managing director of Daijiworld TV; Ajay Shetty of Ujwal Developers; the promoters of the firm, Vittal Kulal and Vinutha Vittal Kulal; well-wishers; and staff members.
To celebrate the inauguration, the company announced a special 'Visit & Win' campaign. As part of the promotional offer, every visitor to the Kadiyali-Kunjibettu showroom will have an opportunity to participate in a lucky draw and stand a chance to win a dream holiday trip to Kashmir.
