About Us
At Zarnik, we believe that small and medium hotels in India deserve access to all the supplies and essentials they need to operate smoothly and serve their guests, without the hassle of dealing with multiple vendors. We exist to be the one-stop shop that empowers hotels to procure everything they need easily and efficiently.
With our team's 15+ years of combined experience in the hotel industry, we intimately understand the needs and challenges of running a hotel. We've built an online platform that provides a curated selection of high-quality, essential products - from toiletries to linens to office supplies. Our seamless ordering and fulfillment process takes the pain out of procurement.
We complement our product offerings with unparalleled customer service. Our customer-centric mindset means we go above and beyond to meet the unique needs of each hotel we serve. We aim to build long-term relationships as a trusted partner.
Zarnik began its journey in 2016 as an offline distributor of hotel supplies to luxury hotels in India. Over time, we recognized a gap in the market - small and medium hotels often struggled to procure all their essentials efficiently, lacking the resources of larger chains. Inspired to solve this problem, we gradually expanded into an online platform. Our goal was to democratize access to high-quality supplies and revolutionize procurement for hotels of all sizes.
Today, Zarnik has grown into a trusted one-stop shop for hotels across India. But our mission remains the same - to empower hotels to serve their guests better by taking the hassle out of purchasing. We continue to innovate and expand our offerings, always keeping our customers at the heart of what we do.
Zarnik was founded by Azhar Umar, Rahul Jayan and Prasobh Kumar - a team of entrepreneurs with deep roots in hotel industry and distribution. Their firsthand experience with the supply challenges faced by hotels drove them to build a better way.
We strive to have a positive impact on both the hotels we serve and the broader community and environment. We make decisions with our customers always at the center.
We treat everyone fairly with dignity and respect, but not on the basis of social class, money, power, position, appearance, age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, maternity, caste, creed, colour, religion or belief.
We take efforts within our capacity to bring about positive change in the world we live in, by helping those in need and, making socially and environmentally conscious decisions. We continuously strive to minimize our negative impact on the environment.
We believe we exist and survive because of our customers and hence we put customers in the center of all our activities, decisions, investments and in everything we do.
