Archies, greeting cards and gift products retailer, has postponed its plans of raising funds and scaling down its expansion plans. The company has attributed this delay due to current economic slowdown. The company was planning to raise $10 million through either private equity or strategic investments that would have been primarily used for opening new stores.
Earlier in May this year, the company had opened three ‘Hallmark Stores’ in Delhi NCR region which were owned and operated by the company itself. In addition to this the company was also planning to open seven new ‘Hallmark Stores’ for which the fit out, interiors and other related works were under process.
Archies is India’s top market leader and a Superbrand in the social expression industry with over 60% market share in the organized sector. Archies currently operates 203 exclusive company owned and operated outlets in 15 states 62 cities and 280 franchise outlets across India.
