Bharti Realty, a part of the Bharti Group, is in talk with France’s upmarket departmental retail chain Galeries Lafayette for its first store in India. Family-owned Galeries Lafayette, which has its flagship store in Boulevard Haussmann in Paris, operates stores in several countries and is currently on an expansion spree in China and other parts of the world. Bharti Realty, the real estate arm of Bharti Group, has also held discussions with Cupertino based tech giant Apple for what could be the iPhone maker’s second flagship store in the country to be located at Aerocity in New Delhi. Such retail expansion move of Bharti Realty will be a new business opportunity for the signage companies whose activities involve in in-store designs, displays and other related tasks.
