Italian cosmetics brand KIKO Milano has taken its first step into the South Indian market with the opening of a new store at Forum Mall, Kochi. The launch marks a significant milestone in the brand’s India expansion, adding Kerala to its growing presence across key cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Pune and Lucknow.
The Kochi debut follows KIKO Milano’s acquisition by Reliance Retail Ventures Limited (RRVL) in 2024, a development that bolstered Reliance Retail’s premium beauty portfolio and paved the way for the brand’s rapid rollout across the country.
Designed as an interactive and experience-driven space, the Kochi store invites shoppers to explore products through dedicated shade and texture bars, enabling personalised trials. The outlet houses KIKO Milano’s complete assortment of makeup, skincare and beauty essentials, positioning the store as a one-stop beauty destination for the region.
Customers can discover some of the brand’s most popular offerings, including the 3D Hydra Lipgloss, Maxi Mod Mascara and the Scent of Milan fragrance range, bringing global bestsellers closer to Indian consumers.
With the Kochi opening, KIKO Milano continues to deepen its omni-channel strategy in India. The brand is available through select Tira beauty stores, Tira.com, and exclusive standalone outlets in major metros. The move into Kochi underscores KIKO Milano’s focus on long-term growth by engaging with diverse, beauty-forward regional markets.
Established in Milan in 1997 by the Percassi Family, KIKO Milano is known for delivering professional-quality makeup, skincare and beauty tools at accessible prices, with a strong emphasis on innovation, safety and inclusivity.
