SINCE 1981,
Varanasi
Overseas Trade Linkers (OTL) was founded in 1981 in Varanasi — the handicraft capital of the world. What began as a family passion for preserving ancient weaving traditions has grown into a globally recognized manufacturer and exporter of premium handmade rugs. Rooted in Varanasi, with production strength across Bhadohi and Panipat, we craft hand-knotted, hand-tufted, and flatweave rugs using wool, silk, cotton, and jute. Backed by GoodWeave, SA8000, C-TPAT and SA9001 certifications, we export to 20+ countries with three simple promises: honest pricing, on-time delivery, and absolute client confidentiality.
