Contemporary handbag brand strengthens its footprint across Noida, Gurugram and Lucknow as it targets growth in North India
Akiki London, the contemporary handbag label by Bagzone Lifestyles, has expanded its retail presence across North India with three operational retail destinations in Noida, Gurugram and Lucknow.
The brand is present through a kiosk at DLF Mall of India, Noida; a standalone store at Summit Plaza, Gurugram; and a kiosk at Lulu Mall, Lucknow. The three retail destinations have been operational for some time and form part of Akiki London’s broader North India expansion strategy.
The DLF Mall of India outlet features a design-led kiosk with gold-accented displays and ambient lighting, showcasing the brand’s range of structured totes, shoulder bags, quilted styles and embellished clutches.
At Summit Plaza in Gurugram, the brand operates a standalone store with a larger retail format and a wider product selection. The Lucknow kiosk at Lulu Mall extends the brand’s physical presence into Uttar Pradesh and gives it access to consumers in one of the region’s prominent shopping destinations.
The expansion comes as North India sees growing demand for premium accessories and contemporary fashion, according to the company. For Akiki London, the latest retail additions are part of a wider roadmap aimed at increasing its presence across emerging fashion and lifestyle markets.
Ayush Tainwala, CEO, Bagzone Lifestyles, said North India remains an important growth region for the company, citing demand for fashion-forward accessories and premium retail experiences.
The North India expansion follows Akiki London’s entry into the organised retail market at Phoenix Marketcity, Mumbai, in January 2026. The company said its physical retail expansion is also aligned with its omnichannel strategy, with stores intended to complement its digital presence.
Akiki London is positioned by its parent company as a contemporary handbag brand offering globally inspired designs at prices between traditional premium and luxury segments. Bagzone Lifestyles is also the parent company behind the brand.
