Zara, one of the world’s largest fashion retailer, is likely to sell online in India.
Inditex, or Industria de Diseño Textil SA, in its results statements for the year ended 31 January 2017 said, "In 2017, Zara expects to launch online sales in India."
The company in its statement said, "To be sure, Zara started leveraging the online sales route only in March this year in just two countries, Singapore and Malaysia. It will start selling online in Thailand and Vietnam in next few weeks."
Zara's plans to sell online in India will help the brand expand its presence beyond the eight cities it is present in currently. Smaller cities and semi-rural areas are seen to be the next growth driver for e-commerce companies.
The Palladium Ahmedabad store embodies Zara's latest concept for larger outlets, featuring advanced technological tools that seamlessly intertwine the online and offline shopping experiences.
According to the latest annual report of Trent Ltd., Zara's India revenue for FY23 reached Rs 2,562.50 crore, showcasing a remarkable growth rate of 40.42 percent.
The store's features, including efficient heating and cooling systems, energy-saving LED lighting, and environmentally friendly materials, demonstrate its commitment to reducing its environmental impact.
The store interiors have been designed as a large, clean, and neutral space which helps shine the spotlight on the collection on display especially the lights and ceiling in the men's department.
