KAI Group, a global name in the kitchen equipment and personal care segment, announced its entry in the Indian market with its diverse range of products which includes kitchen and professional grade knives, razors and nail clippers.

Built on long rich heritage of over hundred years in the blade city of Seki, Japan, the home of forging blades, KAI Group is the only cutlery-related manufacturer developing more than 12,000 products in cooking, grooming, beauty care, and medical fields.
