To transform its in-store experience, Airtel spent almost 2450 hours observing customers, and mapping traffic flows within its stores. Based on these insights, Airtel is redesigning over 2500 Airtel stores across India.

Notably, these Next-Gen Airtel Stores have been conceptualised by the UK-based 8 Inc, who also build the Apple stores in the past. The first two Next-Gen Airtel stores are already live in Gurgaon, New Delhi.

The new stores are open and minimalistic by design and come wrapped in digital technologies to make the customer experience highly interactive through the concept of Share, Create, and Experience.

This is the zone where customers interact with a Social Wall that collates Airtel stories and Airtel customer experiences from across the country on a digital screen. The aim is to inspire customers to imagine the possibilities enabled by the Airtel network.
