Commenting on the launch, Mr. Gulbahar Taurani, MD, and CEO of Philips Domestic Appliances, India Subcontinent, said,

While the sneaker culture in India is on a rapid growth curve, as a consumer first brand, we realized that keeping the sneakers spotless and crease-free is a common concern faced by most. Considering sneakerheads pay heavily to buy some of these sneakers, they are an investment worth taking care of.

Given the dearth of holistic, one-stop solutions that help consumers keep their kicks fresh and clean, we have launched an industry-first device – the Philips Sneaker Cleaner GCA1000/60; a convenient, effective, and easy on pocket shoe maintenance & laundry solution. The Sneaker Cleaner reiterates our brand’s core philosophy of innovation, giving consumers a hassle-free and superior experience, thus making their lives simpler, at home.
