Unique propositions in our franchisee strategy are a key to a successful franchise business. We provide exclusivity to the franchisee within a given territory and refrain from creating a competition.

When we select franchisees, we are not looking for investors, but we are looking for partners who can take the business forward in their territory. The candidate should be experienced and understand the luxury and lifestyle business and also willing to micro manage the business, which is a desired prerequisite. We train the franchisees on all aspects that include understanding the product line, lifestyle retailing, design and soft skills.
