Myntra launches Myntra Global in Singapore, courting Indian diaspora while doubling down on home market
CEO Nandita Sinha targets 650,000 Indians in Singapore via Myntra Global, already at 30,000 users, while reaffirming India as core amid sub-15% e-fashion penetration and aspirational Gen Z shoppers trading up across a 100 million-plus customer base.
What happened
Myntra CEO Nandita Sinha outlines global expansion via Myntra Global's Singapore launch targeting the Indian diaspora, while reaffirming India as core market
Key facts
- 650,000 Indians in Singapore
- 30,000 users
- 12-15% initial milestone
- less than 15% e-fashion penetration
- 100 million-plus customers
