Acer has opened its exclusive brand store, the Acer Mall, in Bhubaneswar.
Targous Technology, Acer's retail partner, will showcase the entire range of

series of consumer PCs, the TravelMate and Aspire notebook series and also the
Acer range of Monitors and Projectors.

At the inauguration, Gautam Basu, Regional Head, Acer India said, "We
are extremely pleased that Targous Technology is partnering with us in our
endeavor to reach out to consumers. Bhubaneswar is a fast growing city, with a
strong and escalating retail market. Acer is very eager to be present in
Bhubaneswar and grow along with it."

"Opening a mall in Bhubaneswar is an advantage for Acer as we see great
potential for retail growth. We are extremely strong in the home, SMB and IT
verticals and intend to continue our focus on these verticals. The mall is
strategically situated on the main road to Puri beside Reliance Fresh, Nokia
showroom and Airtel showroom; this will also give us additional mileage to
penetrate the retail market. The wide range of Acer products on display will
definitely be a large attraction", he added.

"We hope to have a long and successful association with the Acer brand
with the first Acer Mall in Bhubaneswar. With the support from Acer we hope to
see substantial growth in our business and are determined to make this one of
the best PC showrooms in Bhubaneswar. There are special schemes that are running
for the first three days of our opening on all Acer notebooks and desktops for
our walk- in customers. With the new range of Acer products we have on display,
we will definitely be able to draw customers." said Bhram Prakash Mishra,

helps customers in choosing the right product for their requirements by having a
hands-on experience with the product.
