CEAT has strengthened its retail footprint in Gujarat with the opening of its largest CEAT Shoppe in Anand. The 4,200 sq. ft outlet aims to provide tyre fitment services and an improved customer experience as part of the company’s ongoing retail expansion.
Speaking on the launch, Lakshmi Narayanan B, Chief Marketing Officer of CEAT, stated that the new CEAT Shoppe aligns with the company’s strategy to expand in key markets. He highlighted Gujarat as a significant region for CEAT and noted that Anand’s growth as an automobile, educational, and business hub makes it an ideal location for this expansion. He added that the new outlet is designed to offer tyre solutions and expert service, further strengthening CEAT’s presence in the state through its collaboration with Bharat Tyres.
This opening marks CEAT’s seventh new Shoppe in Gujarat in 2025, following store launches in Ahmedabad and Rajkot. With this addition, the company now operates around 45 CEAT Shoppes in the state.
