About Us
Our Philosophy
It's passion, not only work!
Sanskriti is an eastern Novelty, Gift & Prayer retailer & wholesaler based in Mayfair, Johannesburg.
It started out as a hobby, inspired after the first visit to India for a religious sabbatical where it was noticed that affordability was one of the stumbling blocks that prevented South African Hindus from practising their religion.
This hobby soon became a thriving business. Within 6 months of opening its doors, Sanskriti — then trading from a 36 m² arcade locality — had to relocate to premises in excess of 265 m².
A reputation for quality and good taste was soon established, with international brands approaching Sanskriti with joint ventures and exclusive distribution rights offerings.
Two of these were accepted, positioning Sanskriti as the sole distributor for both the Pitambari products and Vedic Cosmos range of books.
In its short existence, Sanskriti has distinguished itself from conventional competition and has created a niche market identified by excellent quality of products and service, outstanding range and variety of offering, and affordability that is the cornerstone of its conceptualisation.
