UK-based Toy retailer Hamleys is set to open its first franchise outlet in India this month.
It has just two international stores at present, in Dubai and Jordan. Hamleys will open its second shop in Dubai on March 16 and its first Indian shop in Mumbai on March 26, according to Retail Week.
It had laid out plans to expand globally last year but suffered a setback after talks with a franchise partner in Russia collapsed. However, Hamleys has now partnered with franchisee Delta Sport to open in central Belgrade in Serbia this October.
The retailer is also mulling shops in Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania and Macedonia.
