“At TONILAND, we provide affordable and fun family time in a clean, beautifully curated and safe environment.”

(Partners, TONILAND)

Family time is something that we all adore. The happy and smiling faces of kids can cheer anyone’s mood instantly. To spend quality and fun time with family, play zones are one of the most entertaining and amusing options. But unfortunately, in Tier 2 or Tier 3 cities, these options are very limited. To fill that void of entertainment, Prerna and Abhishek Saraf introduced the first TONILAND Play Zone in 2016 and today it is a chain of Family Entertainment Centres (FEC) in indoor shopping malls.

TONILAND revolutionises how kids and families spend a fun and productive time in safe, secure and conveniently accessed locations. TONILAND always prioritises the Happy faces of children over anything else and that’s why the energetic team of TONILAND provides excellent customer service and support.

The genius brains behind TONILAND are Prerna Saraf and Abhishek Saraf. Being the Founding Partner of the company, Prerna Saraf lays the strategic roadmap of TONILAND and drives its growth in multiple cities. Through TONILAND, Abhishek follows his passion in the Family Entertainment industry. He is the backbone of the company and handles strategic conceptualising, budgeting and design & development of each store at TONILAND.

Prerna Saraf is an Economics Honors Graduate from St. Stephen College in Delhi. Bringing her expertise in the finance and marketing area, she manages the sales & marketing strategies of the company.

“TONILAND seeks to excel in everything. From the ideation stage to the operational stage, the vendors that we select, the interior designers and properties we select, we need perfection and uniqueness in each domain,” mentions Prerna Saraf.

THE INCEPTION OF TONILAND

TONILAND was conceived after Abhishek faced difficulties finding an FEC brand for one of the shopping malls that he was leasing in Howrah, West Bengal. That’s when the Founder duo realised that there are only a few entertainment centres in Tier 2 & Tier 3 cities. To bridge this gap in the entertainment industry, they established TONILAND in 2016. The couple named the store, TONILAND after their daughter, Rhea who they fondly call Toni.

TONILAND started with its first toy store and indoor play zone at Forum Rangoli Mall, Howrah in 2016 and since then it has become a happy place for families to spend quality time. Building the trust of customers with the safe and hygienic playing zones, TONILAND currently has 6 operational stores in different cities including Kolkata, Bhubaneshwar, Rourkela, Siliguri and many others.

Abhishek adds, “Unlike other organisations, we lay our emphasis on underrepresented areas and cities where the bigger brands do not want to go. We have been filling that void in the market.”
