M&S sees India key to overseas growth

Marks & Spencer Group, one of the largest clothing retailers in the UK is eying India for its overseas business expansion. This London-based retailer gets about 10 percent of sales from outside of the UK and aims to increase that proportion to about 30 percent. The company’s international expansion will bring an overall new boost in the Indian retail segment where opening of the high-end Marks & Spencer stores is now in the pipeline and signage industry will find big opportunity to exploit.
