In keeping with the brand’s global mandate, the focus will remain on launching new stores at key shopping and retail destinations across India.

“H&M is having a great first year in India. The fantastic response from our consumers, to adopt international trends in their wardrobes, and a stronger economy, have encouraged us to explore new markets in metros and beyond.

“All our new locations will be full concept stores, offering the latest in women’s, men’s and children’s fashion,” said Janne Einola, the brand’s Country Manager.
