Sanjeev Gogia graduated with a B.Tech in Textile Technology and an MBA in Marketing. After working for six years in the garments manufacturing and export industry, he decided to start something on his own. He wanted to make his mark as a successful entrepreneur and he went after this dream with all his passion and zest. It was fulfilled when Manan Apparels came into being in May 2000 with an order in hand on the very first day. But Gogia was not one to rest on his laurels. He continues to work enthusiastically towards his company’s expansion and success.

Shivani Gogia, a textile designer by profession, is heading the home textiles division at Manan Apparels. Drawing on nearly thirteen years of independent experience in the field designing a range of products such as towels, carpets, dhurries, and coordinated home textiles, she has set up this add-on division here. She works extensively on coordinated cushion covers, runners and carpets.
