Gap, another big brand from the US, is learnt to have stepped up enquiries about the Indian market after the government recently allowed up to 100 percent FDI in single brand retail. In Asia, the only places where Abercrombie’s flagship stores are located are Singapore, Japan and Hong Kong. The $3.4-billion, Ohio-based chain has a little over 1,000 stores across the US, Canada, the UK, Europe and Asia. It also operates offshoot brands like Hollister and Gilly Hicks. Now that the unveiling of Gap stores in India would be a fresh opportunity for the signage companies dealing in in-store displays and others.
