Akiki London, the contemporary handbag label owned by Bagzone Lifestyles Pvt. Ltd., has strengthened its retail presence in North India with the opening of three new stores, signalling the brand’s next phase of expansion in the region.
The new outlets include a kiosk at DLF Mall of India in Noida, a standalone store at Summit Plaza in Gurugram, and a kiosk at Lulu Mall in Lucknow. All three locations have been operational for some time, the company said, and mark a deliberate push into some of North India’s key fashion hubs.
The DLF Mall of India kiosk features gold-accented displays and warm ambient lighting, showcasing the brand’s full range — from structured totes and statement shoulder bags to quilted silhouettes and embellished clutches. In Gurugram, the Summit Plaza store offers a more immersive format, with expanded space designed to give shoppers a deeper look at the brand’s collections. The Lucknow kiosk, meanwhile, brings Akiki London to one of Uttar Pradesh’s most prominent retail destinations, extending the brand’s reach into an emerging fashion market.
Company executives described the move as part of a broader growth strategy rather than a simple retail rollout. North India, they noted, remains one of the country’s most dynamic fashion markets, shaped by shifting consumer tastes and rising demand for premium yet accessible accessories.
“North India continues to be a key growth region for us, driven by a strong appetite for fashion-forward accessories and premium retail experiences. With our presence at DLF Mall of India, Summit Plaza, Gurugram, and Lulu Mall, Lucknow, we aim to bring Akiki London closer to our consumers while offering a more elevated and engaging shopping experience,” said Ayush Tainwala, CEO, Bagzone Lifestyles Pvt. Ltd.
The North India rollout follows Akiki London’s launch at Phoenix Marketcity in Mumbai in January 2026, continuing what the company describes as a carefully planned national retail roadmap. The brand said it intends to keep expanding into cities where fashion and style preferences continue to evolve, positioning itself as a leading name in India’s accessible-luxury handbag segment.
The physical expansion also ties into Akiki London’s broader omnichannel strategy, with the company aiming to blend its in-store experience with its digital presence for a more seamless customer journey.
