Who We Are?

Furtados

Furtados has been synonymous with music in India since its establishment in 1865. With a rich history of influencing music at all levels, Furtados has been instrumental in importing and distributing leading brands of musical instruments, maintaining a retail network of 21 stores across the country. Its award-winning website, www.furtadosonline.com, provides support to teachers, musicians, and students across genres and geographies.
Furtados prides itself on being the first to import musical instruments after the opening up of the Indian economy in the early 1990s and continues to maintain its leadership role in providing musical instruments, accessories, and printed music to the music loving community in India. The directors of Furtados have played a pivotal role in steering FSM towards its success.
