COB Modular

About Us

OUR STORY

From a Pune Outhouse to Homes Across India

In 2002, Er. Bhaskar Narayan Bhide founded Kraftsmann from his Pune home with a simple belief: create modular kitchens built to last, with honesty at their core.

In 2012, his son Omkar Bhide joined to scale the business while preserving its values, followed by Amruta Bhide, who shaped its design language. This journey evolved Kraftsmann into COB Modular, a family legacy built on quality, functionality, and consistency.
सेवा परमो धर्मः
"Service is our highest duty, and our greatest purpose."
- Er. Bhaskar Narayan Bhide, Founder
