Läderach, renowned globally for its high-quality Swiss chocolates, is bringing a wide range of handcrafted chocolate bars, pralines, truffles, and exclusive gifting options to Mumbai.

Sanskriti Gupta from Läderach India shared her enthusiasm, saying, "We are excited to introduce the luxurious experience of Läderach chocolates at Jio World Plaza, our first store in Mumbai. As a strategic market for Läderach, Mumbai has demonstrated exceptional enthusiasm for our brand, evident in the resounding success of our e-commerce offerings. In strategic partnership with the DS Group, we aim to expand our reach and offer the distinctive Läderach experience to a wider Indian audience."

Läderach began its e-commerce operations in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai towards the end of last year, aiming to strengthen its presence in the Indian luxury retail market. The partnership between DS Group and Läderach, announced last year, marked the debut of the Swiss brand in India. It started with the opening of a store at DLF Emporio Mall in Delhi NCR, which offered an immersive in-store experience for customers.

Established in 1929, DS Group is known for its diverse portfolio, which includes products and services in sectors such as food and beverage, mouth fresheners, luxury retail, hospitality, and agriculture. Some of the well-known brands under its umbrella are Rajnigandha, Catch, Pulse, and Läderach.
