Naihaa (known as Naidu Hall from 1939 to 2001) is an Indian retailer of women and children's wear and wardrobe store based in the city of Chennai.
History
Naidu Hall was started in 1939 by M. G. Naidu from Gudiyattam. Naidu arrived in Madras in the early 1930s and had set up a tailoring shop in Raghavaiah Road, T. Nagar. In 1939, he moved to Pondy Bazaar where he set a shop which manufactured female garments. It was popular for its lingerie and women's underwear. Later it branched out into manufacturing and retailing other types of women's dresses. In 2001 it was rebranded as "Naihaa". It also expanded its presence to Salem, Madurai and Coimbatore. Currently it also retails cosmetics and jewellery. It is now run by Naidu's grandson R. Aravind.[1][2]
