What is Panjaban all about?
Hi, I’m Manni, the founder of Panjaban.com.
For years, I had this little idea sitting in the back of my mind: “One day, I’ll create an online store selling Punjabi cultural items.” That day just… kept getting postponed. I didn’t know where to start, didn’t have the time, or let’s be honest was sometimes just a bit too lazy to figure it all out.
Then in 2024, I found out I was pregnant and suddenly everything changed. I confidently told myself,“Perfect! I’ll do it on maternity leave. I’ll have a whole year.”
A. WHOLE. YEAR.(If you’re a parent, you already know where this is going.)
With the help of my husband, I started planning what I wanted to sell and began building the website. I had visions of peaceful naps, productive afternoons, and a baby who definitely slept through the night. Spoiler alert: none of that happened.
After my baby arrived, time completely disappeared. Days blended into nights, naps were unpredictable, and sleep became more of a concept than a reality. Still, towards the end of my maternity leave, I picked it back up working whenever the baby napped or finally fell asleep for the night (not that he ever stayed asleep).
To be fair, my husband has been a huge part of this journey helping build the website and supporting Panjaban throughout the year. This truly became a family effort.
>>Fast forward to now: Panjaban.com is live.
We’re set up, officially trading. There’s still a long way to go and many more products in my vision but the most important thing is that we’ve started. So welcome. Have a look around, get shopping, and join us in celebrating Punjabi culture.
Why Punjabi Culture?
The reason behind Panjaban is simple and deeply personal.
Firstly, I am Punjabi. Secondly, I’ve always loved the vibrancy of Punjabi culture the colours, the confidence, the music, the traditions, and the strong sense of identity. It’s bold, joyful, and full of life, and I believe it deserves to be celebrated and preserved.
