Dr Batra's Health Care, India's leading homoeopathy clinics chain, has decided to further expand its footprint abroad by opening more branches in the Middle East and the UK.
"We have presence in Dubai through two clinics, but we want to open ten more (clinics) in the Middle East, including in Abu Dhabi, Muscat and Bahrain over the next two years," Dr Mukesh Batra, Founder Chairman, Dr Batra's Healthcare, told PTI on Tuesday.
The homoeopathy chain also wants to increase its presence in the UK, even as it already has a clinic in London.
"We will be the only Indian chain of homoeopathy to be present in the UK. In London, majority of the visitors to the clinic are Indians," he said.
In Dubai, out of the total visitors, 20 per cent are the locals, mostly women and children, Dr Batra added.
Dr Batra's Healthcare had an overall turnover of Rs 153 crore in the last financial year.
"We expect to grow to Rs 1,000 crore in the next five years. We have a total numbers 141 clinics in 72 cities and plan to open 350 clinics by 2016," he said.
