LG Explores Appliance Rentals and Expands Air Conditioner Market in IndiaPreviousNext

LG Electronics is exploring growth opportunities in India, where it sees significant potential in both appliance rentals and air conditioning markets. The company has introduced a subscription-based rental model for appliances in select Indian stores, aiming to expand this service amid a culture accustomed to renting. Additionally, India remains LG's largest global market by volume for residential air conditioners, with low penetration rates indicating room for further growth. LG has also invested in local manufacturing to support its expansion in the country.
