AJIO has been at the forefront of redefining India’s fashion choices. Fueled by an emerging premiumization trend, the demand for international brands has increased significantly. In the last two years, the international brand portfolio on AJIO has scaled up 2X, and the brand continues to sustain the momentum with new additions like ASOS.

Emergence of premiumisation trend

Shopping sentiment is at an all-time high with customers looking to upgrade their fashion choices. There has been an emerging trend of premiumization and increasing Average Basket Value (ABV) on AJIO in the last couple of years. This has grown further in the last year with a significant increase in branded merchandise sales on the platform. With exclusive brands like GAP, Diesel, Superdry, GAS, Armani Exchange and much more, AJIO has commanded a strong position as the ultimate destination to shop the biggest brands in the world.

AJIO has planned a 360-degree media launch campaign across online and offline channels to promote ASOS. The brand will also unveil a groundbreaking Mixed Reality experience in the coming days, offering an interactive showcase of its trendy products.
