Fastrack was launched in 1998 as a sub-brand of Titan. It was spun off as an independent brand of watches targeting the urban youth in 2005. Since then, it has infiltrated the lives of India’s youth with designs that were refreshingly different and affordable. After tasting success with watches, the brand jumped headlong into the sunglasses business and in the last 4 years, has deservedly earned the title of being the largest sunglasses brand in the country.
The market until then was unorganized and fragmented. Often the youth used to head to the underground and street markets, buying cheap, unbranded sunglasses of substandard quality as they had no choice!
