The quick rise of Shadow Etail has been featured in multiple newspaper articles and magazine publications. It is also a testament of our commitment to our valued customers. We are grateful to our community and their heartfelt feedback, that has made this miraculous journey possible.
Our Story
In 2017, we started as Shadow Securotronics from a small 60 square feet corner room in Chennai.
Care is our brand mission, as everyone pursues the best of it in multiple forms.
“Shadow” indicating protection in Shadow Securotronics, started with Pepper Spray and GPS Watch retailing, offering security to women and children.
However, our care mission was reciprocated thunderously with the COVID-19 pandemic, costing us a loss of ₹15 Lakhs within 5 days, with 5,000 cancelled orders.
This is when we rebranded to Shadow Etail and facilitated 10,000 quality Oximeters units (with 18 months’ warranty) received with heartfelt appreciation from the crowd nationwide. This helped us earn a solid comeback.
Post-COVID, we expanded our “care” mission by launching rat repellents that not only protected cars and houses from rats but also ensured that they didn’t kill the rats. Its effective formulation places it as a top competitor on Amazon.
The list of our well-known brand names include Tom Cat, Bob Cat, Happy Nights, Mama Quilla, Minimalist, Fin Pharm, Gecko, Lubrizap, Germinox, Commando, Royal Heritage, Maharishi, Hola Cosmetics, Hola Baby, Ninth Ray, Happy Hippo, and Blue Raptor.
The above products are eco-friendly, family-friendly, and easy to use. They solve your day-to-day household problems more effectively and safely than the standard market products.
