However, Xiaomi, which manufactures diverse products consolidated the traditional method of sales in its marketing technique by opening Mi stores across China and in other parts of the world.

Some months ago, Xiaomi Senior Vice President Global, Wang Xiang, said that the company has plans in place to open more than 2000 physical stores (Mi Stores) by 2020. Although many people saw this plan as a foolish move, the company’s financial statement after opening over 200 stores as at October last year suggested otherwise. Now, reports have it that Xiaomi has over 300 Mi Stores in China alone. Do not forget that it opened its super flagship store in Shenzhen last year. Although no official value has been given, Xiaomi probably has hundreds of Mi Stores overseas. The company itself has opened may shops in foreign lands while some traders in India have also converted their shops to exclusive Mi shops.
