As a result, Myprotein now has an official warehouse in Gurugram to deliver the same assurance of quality and authenticity, which is enjoyed by millions of worldwide, to our customers quicker and we are determined to continue to increase our investments in India over the next few years. This will help us to bring more efficiency into our delivery processes as well as lessen the delivery time for our customers. We have also eased the process of payment by providing local friendly options such as net‐banking, e‐wallets, local credit and debit cards.”

We have already started sourcing at various levels in India for our requirements across the business, which will contribute to employment and development in the country.”
