Yusuffali MA, Chairman of LuLu Group quoted: “Indeed a proud moment for me and my entire team who has been our strength and real asset during the journey from a humble beginning during the first Gulf war in the early nineties till date. I take this opportunity to thank the visionary leaders for their proactive strategies and the wholehearted support which have been our guiding force, especially during these challenging times.”

It’s been a very eventful, but a very satisfying journey and we will continue to grow both in existing as well as new markets. There might be some delays in launching our new projects but none of them have been shelved. Hopefully we will reach 225-store count by the end of 2021.”
