MakeMyTrip opens a franchise store in Hubli

Hubli, April 17th, 2023— MakeMyTrip, India's leading online travel company, has opened a new franchise store in Hubli. The Hubli outlet is MakeMyTrip’s tenth in the state of Karnataka. The franchise network expansion is part of MakeMyTrip’s broader strategy to serve customers in the top 100+ cities of India. The franchise network will help serve those customers who may be more comfortable talking to someone they trust.

Karnataka is a key holiday package market for MakeMyTrip, contributing almost 10% in bookings. Maldives, Thailand, and Dubai are the top three overseas destinations booked from Karnataka. Ooty, Mysore, Coorg, Munnar, Manali, Shimla, Chandigarh, and Port Blair are some of the preferred destinations in India.

"We are delighted to have a physical interface in Hubli with the opening of a new store. We aim to build a hyper-local marketing connection by leveraging our partners to build travel communities in cities like Hubli. The initial reaction to the initiative has been positive. We have also invested in technology and training to ensure the service remains consistent across all franchises.”
