Lululemon to Launch in India in 2026 Through Tata CLiQ Franchise Partnership

Canadian activewear leader Lululemon is gearing up to enter the Indian market in the second half of 2026 via a franchise agreement with Tata CLiQ. The partnership will bring Lululemon’s first-ever physical store to India, alongside exclusive online stores on Tata CLiQ Luxury and Tata CLiQ Fashion.

This marks Lululemon’s strategic move into India’s expanding premium activewear sector, offering a full range of apparel, footwear, and accessories designed for activities like yoga, running, training, tennis, and golf.

André Maestrini, Lululemon’s Executive Vice President of International, said the company has been eyeing India for several years as part of its global expansion plans. “We are excited to introduce Lululemon to India’s vibrant communities and help support their active lifestyles through high-quality products and experiences rooted in wellbeing,” he stated.

Beyond retail, Lululemon intends to engage with Indian consumers through local wellness programs and community initiatives that emphasize movement and mindfulness, reflecting the brand’s core values.

This India launch is part of Lululemon’s broader “Power of Three x2” growth strategy, which focuses on international expansion, product innovation, and digital growth. With this move, Lululemon will strengthen its presence in over 30 countries worldwide, including key markets in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, and China.

India’s growing wellness market and rising appetite for premium lifestyle brands have drawn increased attention from global players. Lululemon’s entry through Tata CLiQ highlights the country’s significance as a promising destination for luxury activewear and performance gear.
