Vodafone plans to unveil 1,150 stores

Since the telecom sector is one of the sunshine domains where signage companies mint big revenues, now is the time to rejoice as Vodafone announces its plan to open 150 stores and 1,000 mini-stores across India by March 2015 to market its services. The company’s 1,000th retail outlet was launched with the unveiling of a Global Design Store in Ahmedabad. Vodafone now has outlets in three formats and, as the largest telecom network in Gujarat, has 1.78 crore customers in the State. It covers 94 per cent of the population in Gujarat and has a 37.64 per cent market share in revenues. Vodafone owns 9,000 retail touch-points across India, including 1,000 in Gujarat.
