What is the Meru Gifting newsroom?

This page is where I keep our milestones, our media kit and a way to reach us for press or partnership queries, in one place. I built it because journalists, industry partners and sometimes even large corporate clients doing vendor diligence ask the same questions — when did we start, how big are we now, do we have a logo pack and founder bio ready to use. Rather than answering each one individually, here is the reference version.

What are Meru Gifting's key milestones?

What does the Meru Gifting press kit include?

Our press kit is built around four elements, and we send them on request over email:

  1. Logo files (Meru Gifting and Meru Trophy) in standard formats.
  2. A short founder bio for Rahil Jain, and a longer one if a profile needs more detail.
  3. A boilerplate paragraph describing Meru Gifting, ready to drop into an article or partner deck.
  4. Studio and product photography, including Dharohar craft process images where relevant.
