INDIA Special @ EuroShop 2026: A closer look at India’s retail momentum

Far beyond sourcing, India has become the world's third-largest retail market, a place where scale, speed, and experience come together, offering a unique mix of size, growth, digitalization, and cultural diversity. Its retail landscape is shaped by strong demographics, rapid urbanization, digital adoption, and rising consumer expectations, making it a market very much on the move. I love watching this evolution unfold.

And because the Indian market – and its retail sector in particular – is worth this focus, we are organizing an INDIA Special at EuroShop 2026. The one-hour panel offers a compact look at what this means for the international retail community, followed by time to connect and exchange ideas during a networking session. And you can look forward to Indian snacks served throughout, on February 23rd at 1 p.m. at the Amber Stage in Hall 9, Booth D58.
