    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.

    How the numbers are defined

    How the shares are defined

    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.
