Realme Expansion Map: The Realme Offline Expansion
CEO Madhav Sheth already said that the company is working on expanding its reach in the country back in January. Recently the company broke off with Reliance Digital, the largest electronics retail chain in the country. Reliance Digital stores partnered with OnePlus and Realme for exclusive offline availability of its smartphones back in November.
The Realme smartphones at Reliance Digital stores were priced more than the online stores, and this could be one of the reasons behind the spat.
The company is known to offer budget devices at very fewer profits. Realme is working its own to expand in the offline market. Currently, Realme is conducting offline operations in as many as 35 cities across the country with more than 3000 stores.
The company is planning to expand its offline reach so that it can match up with customer demand. It wants to add 50 more cities per quarter throughout 2019.

The company aims to reach to 150 cities by the end of the year. This includes an expansion plan of about 20,000 outlets. The company is not considering any specific retail chain, as recently Reliance Digital Stores stopped selling Realme devices due to low-profit margins.
The CEO has stated in an interview with ET, that the company is “customer-centric” and it will only work with stores and chains who believe in the same thing.
