Founded in 2016 by Suparta and Andrew Kandolha, SATURDAYS offers stylish, affordable eyewear via its website and more than 60 brick-and-mortar locations across 23 Indonesian cities. The company differentiates its physical outlets by pairing optical services with café experiences serving specialty coffee and pastries, creating a lifestyle destination for shoppers. Its omnichannel model targets Indonesia’s growing middle class, aiming to make quality eyewear accessible while building brand loyalty through experiential retail. Management continues to expand store count while leveraging online sales to reach customers beyond major urban centers. Prior funding includes an undisclosed Series A round in 2022 led by Altara Ventures with DSG Consumer Partners, and an undisclosed venture debt facility from Genesis Alternative Ventures in 2023. Early investors also include Alpha JWC and Kinesys Group. The fresh capital is expected to support further retail expansion and operational scaling across the archipelago.
