LeEco is also eyeing a manufacturing base along with research and development centres in the country, the company's vice chairman and co-founder said recently.
"We have already applied for the single-brand retail licence with the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB). The ministry for communications and information technology has given us options like Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Raipur's electronic cluster, Bhopal and Bhilwada (Rajasthan) to set up our manufacturing base. We will evaluate all the options before finalising our manufacturing location," Liu Hong, vice chairman and co-founder, LeEco, told IANS in a recent interview.
"We are looking forward to meet the Indian prime minister and the telecom minister because we really want to contribute for 'Make in India' and 'Digital India' initiatives. We would like them to understand our ecosystem and support us manufacture in the country," Hong added.
After storming the Indian market with its disruptive marketing strategies online, LeEco is also planning to sell its products via retail stores.
LeEco is also planning to set up in-house Content Delivery Networks (CND) across 10 cities in India with an initial investement of $10 million to ensure seamless content distribution.
