Nestlé India has officially expanded the retail footprint of its premium coffee brand, Nespresso, with the launch of a new boutique at Ambience Mall, Gurugram. This opening marks the brand’s second physical touchpoint in India, following the successful 2025 debut of its flagship store at Select City Walk, Saket.
The Gurugram boutique is designed as an “immersion store,” transitioning away from traditional retail toward an experiential model. It aims to cater to the city’s cosmopolitan demographic of coffee connoisseurs and professionals who are increasingly seeking high-quality, barista-standard coffee for both home and workplace environments.
Key Features of the Gurugram Boutique:
-
Immersive Discovery: Visitors can explore the full range of Nespresso’s Original and Professional systems, alongside state-of-the-art coffee machines and seasonal blends.
-
Curated Tastings: The space features dedicated areas for guided flavor explorations and one-on-one consultations with coffee specialists to help guests find their ideal roast profiles.
-
Operational Partnership: The brand continues its collaboration with M/s Thakral Innovations Pvt. Ltd. as the official distribution partner for Nespresso and Nestlé India across all channels.
-
Strategic Location: Situated on the ground floor of Ambience Mall, the boutique leverages high footfall from both premium shoppers and international business travelers.
Manish Tiwary, Chairman and Managing Director, Nestlé India, commented: “Indian consumers have long appreciated premium coffee experiences, and that affinity continues to grow. When we launched our flagship store in Saket, we recognized the potential of this evolving relationship. With Nespresso’s presence in Gurugram now, we are one step closer to extending that experience further, whether it is through an everyday household ritual or part of a larger cultural narrative.”
The expansion aligns with a broader trend in the Indian F&B sector, where luxury coffee is moving from a niche indulgence to an essential lifestyle element. Globally, Nespresso’s AAA Sustainable Quality™ Program also remains a core pillar, with the brand sourcing significant quantities of green coffee from farmers in Karnataka to fuel its international supply chain.
