About BRANDit

About Us

A strategic partner for global travel and hospitality brands seeking to build, grow and sustain their presence in India.

About

BRANDit was founded on a single conviction: that global tourism brands entering India deserve more than a local vendor. They need a strategic partner with institutional knowledge of the market, the trade, the media and the consumer.

What began over a decade ago as a focused response to the need for structured, market-specific sales and marketing has evolved into a multi-specialist agency working with some of the world's most established destinations and premium hospitality brands.

Our growth mirrors the transformation of the Indian travel landscape itself. As consumer behaviour, distribution channels and media ecosystems have evolved, so have we — continuously refining our approach to stay relevant, effective and ahead of the curve.

With a team of over 30 professionals — many of whom have been part of this journey over the long term — BRANDit brings continuity, institutional knowledge and a deep understanding of how India works. This enables us to go beyond execution. We advise. We shape. We guide brand strategy with clarity and intent.

We operate as an extension of our clients' teams — not a campaign shop, but a long-term partner in building presence, preference and revenue in India.

What Sets Us Apart

  • Intelligence-Led Representation

    We don't guess. Every strategy begins with India outbound data, source market analysis and competitive positioning. We know the numbers before the conversation starts.

  • Integrated Execution

    Sales, PR, marketing, media buying, digital, MICE — under one roof. Not outsourced. Not fragmented. Not fifteen vendors pretending to be a team.

  • Long-Term Partnerships

    Our oldest client mandates span over a decade. We don't pitch and disappear. We build institutional knowledge about your brand in the Indian market — and that knowledge compounds.

  • Consumer Access

    Through The Gypsy Travel Festival and our media partnerships, we reach the Indian traveller directly. We don't just sell to the trade. We create demand at the source.

The Founders

Lubaina Sheerazi
CEO & Co-Founder

Lubaina Sheerazi

Lubaina started her career in fashion before finding her calling in travel and tourism, building deep industry experience across Galileo, Air Sahara, Kuoni and Cox & Kings. In 2010, she co-founded what would become BRANDit with a team of two. Within four years, she built a 25-person agency delivering 360-degree destination brand marketing.

Her first landmark was branding Oman as an exotic leisure destination in India — shifting its image from a labour-market association to a desirable travel choice. Within five years, India became Oman's 2nd largest source market. She replicated the model with Seychelles (400% growth in Indian arrivals since 2013), Japan, Azerbaijan, Thailand and hospitality brands including Jumeirah, Club Med and Cinnamon.

A multiple-award winner and a sought-after speaker across travel trade forums, Lubaina brings two decades of experience and an unmatched understanding of the intricate fabric of India's outbound travel ecosystem.
