The retail landscape in India is changing fast. This shift is not cosmetic or driven by hype. It is structural, permanent, and powered by a customer who expects more clarity, more convenience, and more control than at any point in Indian retail history. For decades, brands operated through complex, opaque distribution networks that prioritized reach over relationships. That model worked...
