Brand Nothing has announced that its upcoming smartphone series, the Nothing Phone (3a), is being manufactured in India. This aligns with the company’s commitment to harnessing India’s rich manufacturing ecosystem, investing in the local economy, and fostering technological innovation. According to Nothing, the brand has significantly contributed to job creation, with over 500 employees in their factory in Chennai, where the Phone (3a) Series is being manufactured, with 95% of the employees being women. This facility is central to the production of the Nothing Phone (3a) Series, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to local manufacturing.
This announcement comes at a significant time for Nothing, as the brand continues its strong growth trajectory. According to Counterpoint Research’s Monthly India Smartphone tracker, Nothing recorded an impressive 577% year-over-year growth in India’s smartphone market in 2024, driven by strong demand for the Phone (2a) Series and its sub-brand CMF by Nothing. Additionally, Nothing recently surpassed $1 billion in lifetime revenue, just four years after its launch in October 2020.
Building on its commitment to the Indian market, Nothing continues to strengthen its after-sales support network. The brand now operates five exclusive service centers in Bengaluru, Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Chennai, along with five priority desks and 300 multi-brand service centres. Additionally, Nothing’s retail presence has expanded from 2,000 stores at the beginning of last year to 7,000 stores currently, further solidifying its position as a key player in the Indian smartphone landscape.
The Nothing Phone (3a) Series is designed in London and manufactured in India. Stay tuned for more details in the coming days!
