Kumar) but today, if I reflect back, the family always had its foundations in affluent luxury retail. Our forefathers from pre-partition Punjab were jewellers and lifestyle retailers, catering to royal families. My father, an optometrist of the old school with excellent linguistic skills , established himself as a premier optical and vision care provider ,amongst the elite of Ahmedabad. He was a visionary who saw merit in investing in and upgrading the dispensing and refractive equipment to improve upon the standards of dispensing. In more ways than one, he propelled R. Kumar into a business that strives for excellence, innovation and relevance in evolving times. Hence, today, at R. Kumar, we see even the fourth generation of customers.
