History and operations[edit]
PTron was founded in 2014 by Ameen Khwaja, CEO of Palred Electronics (a subsidiary of Palred Technologies). In 2015, it opened an office in Shenzhen, China[6] and began manufacturing products from there. In its first two years of launch, the company claimed to have recorded ₹ 50 crore in sales, (as of 2019, equals US$7.04 million) having sold more than one million products.[2] As of 2019, the company has sold over 5 million mobile accessories including headphones, bluetooth audio devices, smartwatches and power banks.[2][1][7] The company initially sold products through its retail platform LatestOne, before expanding to other e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Flipkart and Snapdeal.[1][8][9]
As of 2019, PTron sells its products in various countries such as United States, Canada, Italy, Myanmar, Hong Kong, Israel and Indonesia.[1] According to Khwaja, Hyderabad, Chennai and Delhi are the major markets for the company within India, while selling products through more than 1000 offline stores in other cities.[1][10] By 2018, the company had more than 40 distributors in 12 states in India.[5]
In August 2019, PTron announced its plans to set up an assembly plant in Hyderabad (under Make in India)[11] which is expected to handle two-thirds of its manufacturing requirements.[1]
