This move reflected Lenskart’s strategic intent to extend its presence beyond India and explore international markets.
Continuing its expansion spree in the Middle East market, the eyewear retailer recently opened four new stores in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with three in Riyadh and one in Jeddah.
Lenskart was founded in 2010 by Peyush Bansal, Amit Chaudhary and Sumeet Kapahi. With over 1,100 stores strategically located in major cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, and Chennai across India, the company’s online platform and retail outlets collectively offer a collection of more than 5,000 eyewear styles, according to information available on the company’s website.
