Indian premium leather brand Kompanero has strengthened its retail presence with the opening of its new store at the Chennai airport.
 

The brand will be further strengthening its presence and has planned 15 new stores for this year in cities like Chennai, Chandigarh, Guwahati, and Mumbai.
 
The new store will house ladies' handbags, sling bags, travel bags, backpacks, messenger bags, portfolios and handcrafted Italian footwear along with leather jackets and belts.

Talking about their expansion, Indranath Sengupta told FashionNetwork.com, “In 2019 will see an expansion of another 15 outlets adding to this chain. Online retail gives a major boost to annual sales, and we have digital teams in place to cater to online shoppers. But we have recognized that creating a comfortable and positive in-store customer experience is an intangible asset for sales, brand awareness as well as to retain customer loyalty.”
 
The company witnessed an overall growth of 60 percent this fiscal from the last financial year. The brand is banking on international and domestic expansion for future growth.
 
Kompanero currently has 30 stores across India and aims to cross the 100 EBOs mark in India by the end of 2025. The brand also has a strong presence in Australia, Europe, the US, Korea, Japan, Canada, New Zealand, UK.
