Hence, we decided to focus on the requirements of the ethnic consumer base and came out with a wide array of products that hits the right notes of nostalgia and provides a familiar, homely feeling to our consumers. We want to give the residents of the country a chance to explore internationally-loved delicacies, right at a store near them.”
