VLCC is among the first multi-outlet corporate operations in the skincare, beauty, and wellness industry in India, founded by Mrs. Vandana Luthra in 1989. The VLCC Group operates 310 locations in 139 cities across 11 countries, with over 3,000 skilled professionals including medical doctors, nutritionists, physiotherapists, cosmetologists, and fitness experts. Services include hair care, skin care, makeup, body treatments, and wellness counselling. The brand has become synonymous with skincare and beauty in Indian households.
VLCC provides 15 days of training at the brand location covering service delivery, product knowledge, customer management, and salon operations. The brand handles marketing through digital and electronic media. Agreement term is 15 years.
A VLCC franchise needs a total investment of around ₹40 lakh. That includes a one-time franchise fee of ₹8 lakh. The figures come from the brand and can vary by location and outlet size.
VLCC asks for roughly 1,000 sq ft. A typical outlet runs with about 9 staff.
VLCC estimates a payback period of about 27 months. This is the brand's own estimate and depends heavily on location, rent, and how the outlet is run, so treat it as a guide rather than a promise.
VLCC charges a royalty of 15% of sales. These are ongoing costs, separate from the initial investment.
VLCC operates on the FOFO model. The model decides who owns the outlet and who runs it day to day, which affects how involved you are and how much of the risk sits with you.
VLCC is currently looking for franchise partners in Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, and Lucknow, and 4 other cities. Submit an enquiry to check availability in your area.
VLCC provides training, operations manual, site selection, marketing support, and supply chain. Details of what each covers are on this page, and the brand can confirm specifics for your location.
VLCC was established in 1989 and operates around 310 outlets. Track record is worth weighing alongside the investment figures when comparing brands in the beauty & personal care category.
