Why French Brand Lacoste will not E-Retail in India ?
« on: January 16, 2013, 11:50:26 AM »
French Lifestyle Brand Lacoste has established sizable presence in India with Exclusive Brand Outlets, Flagship Stores, Lcoste Polo Lounges and Lacoste Live Stores. They now have around 50 stores in all.

Why Lacoste does not want to go for e-Retailing in India ? Lacoste does not intend to get into e-retailing except for perfumes. E-retailing would dilute brand since most e-commerce is currently based on the discount format. By not engaging in e-retailing, they get to know which sites are selling counterfeit Lacoste apparel. E-retailing strategy differs from country to country.
