Galaxy Furniture and Electronics Inaugurated in Surathkal
Surathkal, a thriving locality on the outskirts of Mangaluru, has witnessed a significant retail development with the inauguration of the Galaxy Furniture and Electronics outlet on Sunday, 12th January, 2025. The new store, situated at Chokkabettu, aims to capitalise on the growing demand for modern retail experiences in the area, which has long seen limited shopping options.
The inauguration ceremony attracted a host of local dignitaries, including former MLA Mohiudeen Bava, KPCC General Secretary Mithun Rai, Surathkal Police Inspector Mahesh Prasad, and several prominent community leaders. Their presence highlighted the importance of this new venture in not only catering to consumer demand but also contributing to the socio-economic growth of Surathkal. Former MLA Mohiudeen Bava remarked on the rapid transformation of Surathkal, underscoring that the area, once overshadowed by Mangaluru, has witnessed significant infrastructural progress. “In the past, residents had to travel to Mangaluru for their shopping needs. Now, Surathkal is evolving into a retail hub, and outlets like Galaxy Furniture and Electronics are pivotal in driving this change,” he said.
The new store, spanning 1,300 square feet across four floors, offers a wide variety of furniture and electronics, catering to the growing affluence and diverse needs of Surathkal’s residents. With a strong focus on value proposition, the outlet has launched a series of promotional offers, including discounts of up to 50 percent throughout its inaugural month. Customers will also receive lucky coupons with every purchase, which will enter them into a draw to win prizes such as a Honda Activa 6G, a corner sofa, and a four-seater dining set. Additionally, the store provides attractive EMI options with zero down payment, making it an accessible shopping destination for a broad demographic. The significance of Galaxy Furniture and Electronics in Surathkal cannot be understated. With the retail sector in the region continuing to grow, the outlet stands as a testament to the increasing demand for modern, high-quality products close to home.
The development also speaks to the larger retail trend in smaller towns and suburban areas, where the convenience of proximity and competitive pricing is becoming a driving force for consumer behaviour. Surathkal has long been known for its industrial presence, but with this new addition to its retail landscape, it is positioning itself as a diverse and dynamic destination for both shopping and living. The positive response to this launch signals that the area is ready for more such developments, which in turn will contribute to its overall economic growth.
