Global Japanese apparel brand UNIQLO is set to launch its first-ever store in Pune on 26 September 2025, continuing its strategic retail expansion in Western India. The new outlet, located at The Pavillion Mall on Senapati Bapat Road, will mark UNIQLO’s 18th store in India, further solidifying the brand’s commitment to reaching more customers with its LifeWear philosophy — clothing designed for quality, function, and everyday comfort.
The 9,213 sq. ft. store will offer a full range of LifeWear collections for men, women, children, and babies, including customer-favourites like Flannel Shirts, Denim, Core T-Shirts, Knits, Bra Tops, Polos, Easy Pants, and innovative fabrics such as HEATTECH, PUFFTECH, and Fleece.
Kenji Inoue, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of UNIQLO India, stated, “Pune is a vibrant, rapidly growing city, and we are thrilled to bring our high-quality, functional LifeWear clothing to customers here. After opening stores in Mumbai, our first store in Pune at The Pavillion represents the next step in our expansion in Western India. We are committed to growing across India and bringing LifeWear to more and more customers.”
Pune, with its dynamic student population, emerging professional hubs, and burgeoning fashion culture, aligns well with UNIQLO’s mission to create everyday, accessible, and thoughtfully designed clothing for all.
The store’s launch highlights UNIQLO’s broader efforts to grow in India’s key metro and tier-1 cities by providing a modern shopping experience with tech-enabled services, essential wardrobe pieces, and a consistent focus on sustainability and innovation.
