H&M to open its first high street store in India

Known for its upscale store launches in India and rest of the world, Swedish fashion retailer H&M is coming up with its first high street store at Connaught Place in New Delhi. This would be the brand's eighth store after a series of store launches in Delhi-NCR, Mohali, Bengaluru and most recently, in Mumbai. The Connaught Place store will be operational from the coming weekend.

Set in the Capital's most prestigious retail district, the new H&M store will be situated in a heritage building in the inner circle of Connaught Place. The store was designed envisioning the vicinity's colonial character and glorious history. It spans across 28,000 sq. feet and is spread over two levels to offer customers a distinct combination of heritage, fashion and design.

"I am extremely proud that we are opening our first high street location at such a landmark destination in Delhi. The city centre and iconic buildings of Connaught Place will serve as an exciting environment for customers to explore H&M's offering of fashion and quality at the best price in a sustainable way," elaborated Janne Einola, Country Manager, H&M India.

After a spectacular opening in Mumbai at High Street Phoenix, H&M will be arriving at Pheonix Market City Kurla, Phoenix Marketcity Mall in Pune and Express Avenue Mall in Chennai later this year.
