About Us

Who We Are

  • The Traders and Customer Welfare Association was founded in 2011 with a simple but urgent purpose: to protect and strengthen local retail businesses at a time when they need it most. Today, we are proud to represent **almost 25,000 registered retailers** across our markets — making us one of the largest trader associations of our kind. We exist because local shopkeepers deserve a strong, united voice — one that can stand up for their rights, solve their everyday problems, and bring customers back through their doors.

About TCWA

TCWA brings traders and customers together, strengthening trust, opportunity, and shared prosperity across India’s growing markets and business communities through meaningful relationships and practical support.

A connected marketplace where every relationship creates opportunity, trust, and room to grow.

Shopping malls and online marketplaces have reshaped how people shop — and local retailers have paid the price. Our mission is clear: bring business back to the local market. We do this by organizing large-scale shopping festivals, running awareness campaigns, and giving every trader in our network the support of an organized, connected community — something no single shopkeeper could build alone.
