MAPIC India is not a product show but an event about where to open stores. Mall operators, commercial real estate developers, retail brands, and investors gather, and the discussion moves on who goes into which property in which city.<\/p>\n\n

What kind of event it is<\/h2>\n

Exhibition booths, a conference, and pre-booked meetings are combined. The visitors are mall operating companies, developers, and the people in charge of store openings at brands, and the talk concentrates on rent levels, unit terms, and which city will grow next.<\/p>\n

Malls in India differ in character by city and by property. Even within the Delhi capital region, the price range of the brands inside differs from one property to another. This is a place to hear about those differences directly from the operators.<\/p>\n\n

What Japanese companies can do here<\/h2>\n

For companies considering opening a restaurant or a retail store, it is a chance to talk directly with the mall side. Asking not only about rent but also about common area maintenance (CAM), the deposit, the contract term, and how a revenue share is combined with a minimum guarantee gives you a sense of the economics.<\/p>\n

It is relevant to companies handling character and anime merchandise as well. In India, many start with pop-ups or event stalls, and you can learn here about vacant units and the terms for event space.<\/p>\n\n

What to check before taking part<\/h2>\n

The event runs two days and centers on pre-booked meetings. Naming the properties you want to meet at the registration stage produces better results than walking in on the day.<\/p>\n

If you are seriously considering opening a store, we recommend going to see in person any property you have spoken with. The customer base changes between weekdays and weekends, and food court turnover differs from one property to another.<\/p>\n\n
