Bath & Body Works had entered the Indian market through a partnership with Major Brands and opened its first store in India last year at New Delhi’s Select Citywalk.

“We witnessed strong growth potential in the online space and decided to offer a digital shopping experience to customers especially with a focus to cater to tier 2 and tier 3 cities. We aim to reach out to 10 million customers in the coming years,” in a statement said Tushar Ved, president of Major Brands.
