Our Story


Founded in 1990, AL Muthu Chess House is a Chennai-based manufacturer and distributor of quality chess products.

Today, we supply to academies, coaches, schools, and tournaments across the country — ensuring every player, from beginner to professional, has access to well-crafted chess equipment.

At AL Muthu Chess House, our mission remains the same as it was in 1990 — to promote chess through quality, innovation, and dedication.
