More about Swapna Wagh
Founder & Director at Desi Toys & Games Pvt Ltd/Offering Classic Toys & Games, Made in India/Serving Customers Globally
Having worked with big organized retail players in India for more than 8 years, I started a unique venture called 'Desi Toys' which offers popular Indian toys and games for the tech savvy generation and reviving childhood memories for the older generation.
I was able to identify the need gap at the right time and took the opportunity to make and retail these wonderful toys with every care taken for the quality and safety.
After successful results of initial pilot survey, we opened standalone retail store in a renowned mall. I realized we need to have online presence as our customers were moving there. Hence today we retail on all popular marketplaces like Amazon, Flipkart, Snapdeal, Firstcry, Paytm, Hopscotch,etc. We have our own E-store at www.desitoys.in. We are even currently present in Domestic and International Airports in India. We are also selling in popular chain of stores of Hamleys, The Bombay Store, Bargain Book Hut Store,etc
Nothing is stopping us here. With awesome response, we plan to further expand in different ways to ensure tech savvy generation gets to play with our amazing 'DESI TOYS'.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai has been a game-changer for Hungrito, providing us with invaluable connections, insights, and opportunities that have significantly fueled our growth. eChai has introduced us to a global network of entrepreneurs and experts, fueling our growth and opening doors to new opportunities from Ahmedabad to Dubai. The community has become like a second family to us, providing support, guidance, and valuable insights as startup entrepreneurs."

Founder- Hungrito & Netsavvies. Digital Marketing Evangelist
"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
