| Pantaloon is not
just an organisation - it is an institution, a centre
of learning & development. We believe that knowledge is
the only weapon at our disposal and our quest for it is focused,
systematic and unwavering.
At Pantaloon, we take pride in challenging conventions and
thinking out of the box, in travelling on the road less traveled.
Our corporate doctrine ‘Rewrite Rules, Retain Values’
is derived from this spirit.
Over the years, the company has
accelerated growth through its ability to lead change. A number of its pioneering
concepts have now emerged as industry standards. For instance, the company integrated
backwards into garment manufacturing even as it expanded its retail presence at
the front end, well before any other Indian retail company attempted this. It
was the first to introduce the concept of the retail departmental store for the
entire family through Pantaloons in 1997. The company was the first to launch
a hypermarket in India with Big Bazaar, a large discount store that it commissioned
in Kolkata in October 2001. And the company introduced the country to the Food
Bazaar, a unique 'bazaar' within a hypermarket, which was launched in July 2002
in Mumbai. Embracing our leadership value, the company launched aLL in July 2005
in Mumbai, making us the first retailer in India to open a fashion store for plus
size men and women.
Today we are the fastest growing retail company in India.
The number of stores is going to increase many folds year on year along with
the new formats coming up.
The way we work is distinctly "Pantaloon".
Our courage to dream and to turn our dreams into reality – that change people’s
lives, is our biggest advantage. Pantaloon is an invitation to join a place where
there are no boundaries to what you can achieve. It means never having to stop
asking questions; it means never having to stop raising the bar. It is an opportunity
to take risks, and it is this passion that makes our dreams a reality.
Come
enter a world where we promise you good days and bad days, but never a dull moment! |
