Here’s To The New Beginnings…
As we bring another transformative year in retail to a close, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to you, our readers. 2024 has been a year of remarkable innovation and evolution, and it has been our privilege to navigate this journey alongside you — exploring breakthrough strategies, celebrating milestones, and tackling challenges together.

Your unwavering support, engagement, and feedback have been the cornerstone of our efforts to deliver meaningful insights and impactful stories. This commitment from our community enabled us to host two highly successful retail events in November — the 2024 edition of Shopping Centres Next and the co-located India D2C Summit.

Held on the 13th and 14th of November at the Pullman Hotel, Aerocity, this year’s events introduced an exciting new dimension with the theme: “New Age Destinations Anchored by Experiences.” We were thrilled to bring together over 150 speakers, 50 exhibitors, and BD heads from 100+ brands and retailers, including fast-growing D2C brands eager to expand into India’s shopping centres.
