India, May 19, 2026: Medical lifestyle brand Knya is accelerating its retail expansion across India, launching 13 new stores in the first five months of 2026 and taking its total footprint to 26 locations nationwide. The new stores will offer a comprehensive range of products, from scrubs and lab coats to stethoscopes and other everyday essentials for healthcare professionals. With a focus on combining comfort, functionality, and design, the brand continues to build one of the country’s first organized retail networks in the medical wear category.
The expansion began in January 2026 with the opening of its first store of the year in Vellore, followed by launches in Bengaluru, Belagavi, Kochi, Thrissur, Delhi, Bhopal, Udaipur, Jaipur, Patna, Lucknow, and Chennai.
This strategic rollout marks a strong step forward in Knya’s mission to build a deeper on-ground presence in key healthcare hubs, enabling direct interaction with the medical community. By expanding into cities and areas with high concentrations of hospitals, clinics, and medical institutions, the brand is focused on being present where healthcare professionals are, making access more immediate and relevant to their everyday needs.
With these additions, Knya is leading the shift towards organized retail in this space, building one of the first large-scale offline networks in a category that has traditionally remained fragmented, while ensuring its retail presence is rooted in serving the medical community more closely.
Speaking on the expansion, Abhijeet Kaji, Co-Founder, Knya, said: “Our goal is to take Knya to every corner of India. With 26 stores now, we’re seeing strong momentum, but more importantly, we’re learning directly from our community. That feedback is what drives how we evolve our products and retail presence. We’re also seeing strong footfall across our stores, reinforcing the growing demand for high-quality medical wear.”
Knya envisions establishing 100 stores across India by 2027, strengthening its nationwide presence and accessibility. The brand plans to continue its expansion momentum through the year, scaling both its offline footprint and digital reach.
