For Prateek Vats and Deepesh Shrivastava, the open road isn’t just a route, it’s a calling. As Co-Founders of Wanderlooms, they’ve turned their love for riding and exploration into a thriving adventure touring brand. Their mission? To craft unforgettable experiences for fellow travel junkies with stylish, comfortable, and functional gear built for the wild at heart.
Prateek, a seasoned rider from Bhopal and founder of a rider’s club, kickstarted his adventure touring company back in 2007. But the real magic began when Deepesh, a passionate intern from Madhya Pradesh (who once braved a 100 km daily commute!), joined the team. His dedication didn’t go unnoticed soon, he rode his way to becoming a Co-Founder. On Shark Tank India 4, Prateek and Deepesh rolled in with an ambitious pitch of 50 lakh for 2.5% equity. While the Sharks were intrigued by their vision and passion, will they take the ride and invest?
Prateek Vats said, “We’re not just a touring company; we’re storytellers, every journey is about emotions and connections, and we therefore create wearables that are stylish, comfortable and cool. We’re excited to scale Wanderlooms and take adventure to the next level and presenting our brand on Shark Tank India 4 is a great opportunity for us to see that dream come through.”
