2019 has been a fantastic year for Growel’s 1O1. One of the key highlights for us were the positive average spends per footfall in 2019 as compared to 2018. Also, during the festive quarter, we achieved our highest retail sales and TD since inception beating the last highest numbers by a very good margin.
