This decade of LuLu has not only made an impact in the industrial history of Kochi, but also Kerala as a whole.
The Chairman of LuLu Group, M A Yusuff Ali, describes Kochi Lulu Mall as the most revolutionary decision in his business life. Many were of the opinion that such a significant investment in a small town would not be successful.
