Bharti Retail, which has tied up with the world’s largest retailer US-based Wal-Mart, introduces its convenience stores in Ludhiana, marking the company’s foray into organised retailing. The format has been branded `Easy Day’ as first reported by FE. The stores range between 2,500 to 4,500 square feet. With the Easy Day stores, Bharti now joins the ranks of other Indian conglomerates like Reliance Retail and Aditya Birla Group, which have launched chains of their retail stores across the country. Opening of such high-end store will bring new facelift in the Indian retail segment, which subsequently will deliver a new business opportunity to the signage companies dealing in the in-store displays and others.
