‘Games: The Shop’ opens first store in Mumbai

Written by IVG Staff on February 2, 2010 at 4:01 pm

icon_newsGame Shop Retail Pvt. Ltd. has opened its first specialist games retail store - Games: The Shop, in Mumbai. Although it’s a division of E-Xpress Interactive, one of India’s leading game distributors, the store carries games from all publishers across PC, console and handheld platforms. The first store is located at R-City Mall in Ghatkoper West, Mumbai.

games-the-shop Games: The Shop has an expansive collection of games, especially for PC gamers. Games that you probably won’t find in stores anywhere in the country, mostly from E-Xpress’ own catalogue, can be found here at rock bottom prices. In addition, the store also offers the latest releases and special discounts from time to time. The store also has demo kiosks to let you try out the consoles and the latest games before you buy.

After the success of their first store, the company now plans to expand the brand through more stores in Mumbai and the rest of India. So for anyone hoping to get into games retail, now would be a good time to approach E-Xpress with a business plan to open a Games: The Shop store in your city.
