Sportswear brand PUMA has extended its award winning retail concept ‘Forever Faster’ to New Delhi. The store — spread over three floors and covering an area of 4,800 sq.ft in the Capital’s South Extension Part 1 market — imbibes PUMA’s brand ethos, reflected in store design, layout and top-of-the-line product offering.
