India is home to GCCs of over 70 Retail/CPG companies employing over 85,000 professionals. Retail/CPG is one of the fastest growing GCC segments in India, with BestBuy, 7-Eleven, Giant Eagle, Lululemon, Adidas, and Neiman Marcus, among others, opening centers between 2020 and 2024.
Vikram Ahuja, Co-Founder, ANSR, said, “As GCCs become core to enterprise strategy, the way they think about talent is continuously evolving — adapting to new business needs, technologies, and expectations. In a world shaped by AI, shifting expectations, and rapid change, the GCCs that succeed will be the ones that treat talent as a true strategic advantage — combining agility, purpose, and a focus on future-ready leadership.”
