Page Industries, India’s leading apparel manufacturer and the exclusive licensee of Jockey and Speedo in India announced the launch of Jockey’s 1000th exclusive brand store (EBS) in India. Jockey has further expanded its retail network as it focuses on deeper penetration for accelerated growth in the country.
Jockey entered the India market in 1994 under an exclusive partnership with Page Industries Ltd. and has consistently been gaining market share in the Indian apparel market by offering consumers products which are world-class.

The launch of the 1,000th exclusive brand store highlights the significance of the traditional retail network spread for Jockey as the company simultaneously focuses on expanding its online presence.

The experience of the Jockey way of life at these outlets along with Jockey’s trademark comfort and quality have played a decisive role in driving consumer preference for our products. We continue to expand our network of exclusive branded stores across urban and rural centers while simultaneously exploring newer formats of retailing including online platforms as we continue on our growth journey in the country.”
