India’s leading Oil Marketing Company HPCL (Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd) has decided to set up its own multi-channel Retail Stores under the brand name ‘HaPpyShop’ to sell products of daily need to its customers, the Company claimed here on Monday.

It is for the first time that an OMC is entering into ‘non-fuel’ retailing in India. “The product range in each of the new stores has been meticulously planned to suit the tastes and preferences of the local neighborhoods,” said a senior officer of the HPCL.

As a pilot project, the company opened its first Retail Store at the Company’s Retail Outlet at Nepean Sea Road in Mumbai in September, 2021.

In addition to above, the Online Store at Madurai was also inaugurated marking the entry of HaPpyShop in purely online format also,” the company claimed.
