If you’re in Andhra Pradesh or Telangana and have been eyeing a Hisense TV or AC, just got a whole lot easier to get your hands on one. **Hisense India** has officially partnered with **Sonovision** — the region’s largest consumer electronics retail chain — bringing its full lineup of televisions, air conditioners, and upcoming home appliances to **86+ stores** across both states. This is a significant step in Hisense’s aggressive push to own the South Indian market.

## Why This Partnership Makes Perfect Sense?

South India is one of the fastest-growing markets for [consumer electronics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_electronics) in the country — and the numbers back it up. A recent Nielsen India Internet Report found that **25% of households in South India already own a smart TV**, with demand for IoT-enabled and large-screen home ecosystems growing rapidly. That’s exactly the sweet spot Hisense plays in.

What makes this deal particularly strategic is timing. Hisense India inaugurated its **first Indian manufacturing facility in Sri City, Andhra Pradesh** in February 2026 — giving the brand a direct logistical and supply chain edge in the very region it’s now expanding retail coverage. Shorter supply chains mean faster restocking, better pricing, and more reliable after-sales service — things that actually matter to consumers in smaller towns and cities.

Sonovision, established in 1969, isn’t just any retail chain. With **88 branches across 38 cities** and over **680,000 customers served in the last year alone**, it’s the most trusted electronics retailer in the region. When a brand of that calibre picks you as a partner, it’s a genuine endorsement.

## What the Leaders Are Saying?

**Pankaj Rana, CEO of Hisense India**, made it clear this isn’t just a distribution play — it’s about understanding the market at a grassroots level:

“Consumers today are looking for products designed around their everyday lifestyles — whether it is powerful cooling solutions suited for Indian climatic conditions, connected appliances for modern households, or immersive large-screen experiences for movie lovers and gaming enthusiasts.”

**Bhasker Murthy, Managing Director of Sonovision**, echoed the sentiment, highlighting that Hisense’s focus on innovation and value aligns naturally with what South Indian consumers expect from their electronics.

## Building a National Retail Empire — One State at a Time

This Sonovision tie-up is the latest in a string of high-profile retail partnerships that Hisense India has been stacking up through 2026. Their existing network already includes **Reliance, Sathya Agencies, Nandilath G-Mart, Great Eastern Retail**, and **Patra Electronics** — covering a massive swathe of the Indian market.

On the global stage, Hisense is no small player either. Present in **over 160 countries**, the brand holds the **No. 1 global position in the 100-inch-and-above TV segment** for consecutive years (Omdia 2023–Q3 2025), pioneered RGB MiniLED display technology, and is the **official sponsor of FIFA World Cup 2026™**. That’s the kind of global pedigree that gives Indian consumers real confidence.
