What the numbers show
By outlet count, India is the second largest of our markets.
Outlets are spread out: the 11 largest metro areas hold 23% together, so most outlets sit outside the big cities.
Selling into India
Build a hotels list first
Hotels weigh more in India than elsewhere; give them their own list and pitch.
Plan wider territories
Outlets are spread thinner per resident in India than in most markets; size territories by drive time, not by city.
Win owners one by one
With 97% of outlets run independently, the buying decision in India sits with the owner on site, so coverage comes from visits rather than head-office deals.
