Yelahanka, April, 2023— MakeMyTrip, India’s leading online travel company, has opened a new franchise store in Yelahanka. The Yelahanka outlet is MakeMyTrip’s eleventh in the state of Karnataka. The franchise network expansion is part of MakeMyTrip’s broader strategy to serve customers in the top 100+ cities of India. The franchise network will help serve those customers who may be more comfortable talking to someone they trust.

Karnataka is a key holiday package market for MakeMyTrip, contributing almost 10% in bookings. Maldives, Thailand, and Dubai are the top three overseas destinations booked from Karnataka. Ooty, Mysore, Coorg, Munnar, Manali, Shimla, Chandigarh, and Port Blair are some of the preferred destinations in India.

We aim to build a hyper-local marketing connection by leveraging our partners to build travel communities in cities like Yelahanka. The initial reaction to the initiative has been positive.
