Why Has Black Friday Come to India?

A decade ago, Black Friday felt like a purely American shopping festival—massive lines, big screens on discount, and the unofficial start of the holiday season.

But today, India has embraced Black Friday with open arms. Why?

1. India is now a global digital consumer.

With millions of Indians shopping online, global retail events naturally entered the country. E-commerce platforms pushed Black Friday as a marquee moment—just like Diwali, but with global flavour.

2. The festive season mindset fits perfectly.

Indians love a good deal, but more importantly, they love gifting, learning, and celebrating with family. The timing of Black Friday—right after Diwali—means people are still in the mood to buy meaningful products.

3. Parents are choosing value over impulse.

More families are now investing in products that make their children smarter, more creative, and future-ready. Black Friday gives them a nudge to explore these options.

Where UNBOX Fits In

At UNBOX by Launchspace, we realised one thing early:

Black Friday isn’t just about discounts.

It’s about giving families a reason to start something new.

That’s why our Black Friday 2025 sale began on 21st November itself—because why should children wait to learn, play, and grow?

Whether it’s:

🟥 Z Strategy Cards to build number sense

🟥 Operation: Endgame for teamwork and strategy

🟥 UNBOX Design Thinking Kits to spark creativity

🟥 Or accessories like Spinners for more interactive play…

UNBOX turns Black Friday into something bigger than shopping—

a chance for families to bring home weeks of joy, learning, and memorable moments.

This is why Black Friday has grown in India.

Not because of discounts.

But because India is ready for products that enrich life.

And at UNBOX, we’re ready to deliver exactly that.
