Retail evolution
Flagship stores: A new trend in consumer tech
Flagship stores are usually designed as places where customers can experience products firsthand and learn more about a brand. For consumer tech companies, these spaces often emphasize product experience over mere sales. This trend is evident in the retail strategies of several global technology brands, including Apple, that have been eyeing India as an important market in recent years.
Previous expansion
Nothing's first physical retail store was in London
Nothing opened its first-ever physical retail store, called Nothing Store Soho, in London in 2022. The upcoming outlet in India will be the company's first flagship store outside the UK. More information about the store's location and opening date is expected to be announced soon.
