IndiaCo is an Indian-American retail chain that operates nine grocery stores and five restaurants in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, one store in the Atlanta metropolitan area, and one shopping mall in Naperville, Illinois, the biggest Indian-American mall in the United States.

History[]

Anand and Gopal Pabari, brothers, opened the first India Bazaar grocery store in 2004 in Plano, Texas, which was then expanded in 2010.[2] The company expanded to include the Rajula's Kitchen restaurant chain.[1] The chain expanded to Frisco, Texas in 2014 and opened a second location in Plano in 2017.[3][4]

Mall of India[]

In March 2018, IndiaCo announced it would be acquiring the abandoned Walmart building in Naperville, Illinois. The building has been transformed into the new Mall of India shopping mall. The mall includes 26 vendors and a food court with 10 restaurants. It also includes the former abandoned Sam's Club building housing a banquet hall and an entertainment center.[5][6]

The mall, operating under the IndiaCo name, opened on July 23, 2020.[7]
