British luxury shoemaker Harrys of London, which shot into fame in 2002 when 30 Hollywood celebrities, including John Travolta and Denzel Washington, wore its shoes to the Oscars, plans to enter India early next year. It plans to open a store each in Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore in the first phase, an official said. It has been announced that the company’s entry into India is “more connected to relation than it is to a rational, although the 1% luxury consumer from 1.3 billion people is 13 million high net worth individuals”. Such boost in the retail sector with the arrival of high-end brand would bring in fresh business activities for the signage players dealing in in-shop designs and displays.
