Apparel Group India has further strengthened its retail footprint in the country with the launch of ALDO’s 76th store in India at Lulu Mall, Thiruvananthapuram. The development marks another milestone in the brand’s expansion journey and reinforces its commitment to bringing global fashion and lifestyle offerings closer to consumers across key growth markets in India.

The announcement was shared by Apparel Group India on its official LinkedIn page, highlighting the brand’s continued focus on expanding its presence across the country. The new outlet also becomes ALDO’s third store in Kerala, underlining the growing importance of the southern market in the brand’s overall growth strategy.

Located within Lulu Mall, one of Kerala’s leading retail and lifestyle destinations, the new ALDO store offers customers access to the brand’s latest collections of footwear, handbags, accessories, and fashion essentials. The store is designed to deliver a contemporary shopping experience, reflecting ALDO’s globally recognised retail identity while catering to the evolving preferences of fashion-conscious consumers in the region.

The opening comes amid increasing demand for premium international fashion brands in India, particularly in emerging metropolitan and Tier-I cities where consumers are seeking globally inspired products, elevated shopping experiences, and trend-driven lifestyle offerings.

Founded in Montreal, Canada, in 1972 by Aldo Bensadoun, ALDO has grown into one of the world’s leading fashion footwear and accessories brands. The company is known for offering stylish, accessible, and trend-forward collections across footwear, handbags, small leather goods, and accessories. Today, ALDO operates a vast international retail network and is recognised for blending global fashion trends with contemporary design and everyday functionality.

In India, ALDO is operated by Apparel Group, a leading global fashion and lifestyle retail conglomerate with a strong portfolio of international brands. Through strategic store expansions, digital initiatives, and omnichannel retail investments, Apparel Group has been steadily strengthening ALDO’s presence across major Indian markets. The group recently expanded its digital footprint with the launch of the dedicated ALDO India mobile app, further enhancing customer accessibility and engagement.

ALDO’s growing retail network reflects the brand’s confidence in the Indian market, where rising disposable incomes, increasing fashion awareness, and the rapid growth of organised retail continue to create new opportunities for international fashion and lifestyle brands.

With the opening of its 76th store at Lulu Mall, Thiruvananthapuram, ALDO continues to deepen its reach in India while reinforcing its position as a preferred destination for contemporary footwear and accessories, offering customers a blend of global style, quality, and innovation.
