7-Eleven India is poised to launch in Mumbai, marking the first major international convenience-store chain to take on local players. Master franchisee Future Group’s founder and CEO Kishore Biyani said the firm will concentrate on development in Mumbai only for the initial few years of business, with the first outlets launching in March.
‘There will be a cluster of stores in Mumbai,” said Briyani in a Livemint report. “Only in Mumbai we can set up over 1000 stores … I don’t think we would be able to do anything beyond Mumbai for another two-three years.’
