Bharti Airtel has announced that it will double the company-owned and company-operated retail outlets to 300 over the next one year to push for experience centres for customers as competition is set to turn intense. Currently, there are 150 Coco stores across the country and in the next one year we are looking at doubling this number. Point of presence through Airtel franchisee stores will be around 1200-1300 in India. But, the company felt the need to increase its presence with large format stores as experience centres for customers with changing data and devises eco-system. Airtel’s plan to double its store in the next one year is a new business opportunity for the signage companies whose activities involve in in-store graphics, branding and such tasks.
