A Legacy of Tradition, Innovation & Excellence Since 1955
Founded in 1955 by a visionary 25-year-old from the Saliyar weaver community in Nagercoil, Shri. Boothalingam brought the traditional art of Kaithari weaving to Kochi, becoming the first and youngest trader of Kaithari textiles in Ernakulam.
From going door-to-door introducing Kaithari to setting up a 150 sq. ft. shop at Market Road, Ernakulam, his determination laid the foundation for what is today known as Radhakrishna Textiles.
By sourcing products like lungis, kailis, kavi, bedsheets, and towels directly from Erode, Shri. Boothalingam revolutionized textile wholesale in Ernakulam — turning a once quiet street into a bustling textile hub.
Driven by customer demand, retail was launched in the 1980s, and Kamala Textiles — named in memory of the founder's wife — was established in the 1990s, focusing on women’s garments.
In 2014, Shri. Boothalingam’s grandsons, Shri. Bhuvanesh and Shri. Nishanth, launched Radhakrishna Silks, offering high-quality wedding silks and branded garments for men and women — ensuring top quality at unbeatable prices.
