NOPE — A homegrown brand focused on delivering high-functionality gadgets and smart wearables for the GenZ and the youth, launched its first range of mobile accessories and gadgets for the Indian market. The brand revolves around the core values of today’s youth and how they settle for nothing but exceptional quality at the core. NOPE’s USP lies in its manufacturing facilities, and how it focuses upon being cent percent homegrown — right from its production units, the unique design philosophy behind its products, or the distribution. NOPE is an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and thus manufactures its own products and doesn’t rely on sourcing equipment or assembling products from a third-party vendor. NOPE’s unparalleled focus on quality control since day one has been deemed as one of the key differentiators for the brand from other similar players in the industry.
NOPE has marked its arrival with an elusive product portfolio that comprises a promising range of products — NOPE’s flagship neckbands, which are wireless earphones available in different variants, a series of TWS earbuds named Echo, Neo, Buddy, and Shots alongside Bluetooth Speakers — the ‘Boom’ and the ‘Buzz’ — focused upon the young & vibrant audiophile millennials. NOPE’s neckbands and earbuds have some stand-out features like Type C Fast Charging, Google Assistant & Siri support enabled, alongside touch control and 13 mm drivers to name a few.
NOPE also boasts a wide range of Smart Gadgets and Mobile Accessories that comprise Smart Watches, Fit Bands alongside USB chargers, USB & Type-C charging cables, Car chargers, Power banks, and Wireless chargers as a part of the brand’s vast product line.
In a category that’s flooded with players like Boat, Noise, and Mivi — NOPE is banking upon its impeccable distribution network and a distributor-centric approach to cater to the ever-increasing demands of the customers. With 15 brand partners and 370+ distributors who possess integrated access to 30000+ retail points, NOPE’s distribution expertise, lucrative partnership models and unwavering attention to R&D can be instrumental to the brand’s success. The brand intends to put a 360° emphasis on the omnichannel network, right from B2B distribution channels to online marketplaces, alongside its own proprietary platform as a stepping stone to its quality-centric approach.
Led by Keshav Arora, the talismanic chief behind the brand, NOPE intends to be the unconventional preference of the youth by positioning its product range around the needs of the bright and confident youth of India. An industry veteran with over 22 years of experience in Sales & Marketing, Keshav nonchalantly expressed his excitement and put light on what the customers can expect from the brand.
“We are excited to commence the next wave of innovation in the smart gadgets & mobile accessory market with NOPE’s relentless efforts to push the best of technology and quality in the times to come.
