Shopper's Stop sets up shop in Lucknow

Premier fashion and lifestyle store Shopper's Stop opened their first store in Lucknow last month. It's the company's 21st store in the country. The store is built over an area of 45,000 square feet of retail space and extends to three floors. An estimated investment of about Rs 10 crore is believed to be put in the development of this store.

"It's around an investment of the same amount that we do for stores like this," said Shopper's Stop Customer Care Associate and Manager (Marketing and Communications) Uma Talreja.

Prior to the opening of the store, Shopper's Stop had almost 200 members from the city in its loyalty programme, First Citizen, who have been shopping at the Shopper's Stop stores in other cities. "This has been an encouraging factor and a clear indication of the popularity of the store with residents of Lucknow," explained Talreja. The first citizen programme contributes to 63 per cent of the turnover of the company.

Speaking on the occasion, Shopper's Stop Ltd Customer Care Associate and Operations Chief S Ranganathan said, "We are proud to be a part of Lucknow. We hope that our new store will fulfill all their expectations and meet their requirements close to home."
