Library Solutions: Kwench your book thirst at work!

Kwench Library Solutions ties up with clients to offer library solutions for employees with its collection of 50,000 books, besides magazines, journals and movies.


Sunder Nookala wanted to be an engineer but his father couldn't afford it. So he settled for chartered accountancy. Today, Kwench Library Solutions, the company he set up in April 2008 with his IIM-A friends Prashant John, Krishnan Madhabushi and Mitesh Damania, has 300 corporate clients, 85 employees and a turnover target of Rs.500 crore by 2018. Kwench was born out of their collective desire to address the lack of proper library facilities at workplaces.

It ties up with clients to offer library solutions for employees with its collection of 50,000 books, besides magazines, journals and movies. Books are delivered at the employee's desk within 24 hours. The company turned cash positive in June 2010 and has stayed so since.

Giant Leap
Kwench started with 13 clients in 2008 and now has 300 clients spread over seven cities.

Steal Deal
In November 2011, Kwench introduced Myperks.in, a purchase programme that offers everything from 30 categories, including books,magazines, travel packages, baby care and electronics, at discounted rates.

Second Opinion
"The services are innovative and user-friendly.Our employees are happy to avail of these at the workplace."
