Own a Kerala Cafe Franchise
Kerala Cafe was founded with a simple yet ambitious goal—to create an authentic Kerala dining experience that would resonate beyond the state’s borders. Our first outlet in Vasai set the stage, proving that Kerala’s rich culinary heritage had mass appeal.
With strong consumer demand, we expanded to Pune, launching outlets in Baner and Kalyani Nagar. These locations solidified Kerala Cafe’s position as a recognized brand, attracting a loyal customer base and validating our expansion strategy.
Recognizing the potential for scalability, we introduced our first franchise in Mumbai (Chembur). This marked a pivotal moment, as we successfully transitioned into a franchise model, proving the brand’s profitability and operational success in new markets.
With the success of Chembur, we expanded further with another franchise in Bangalore, one of India’s most dynamic F&B markets. This move showcased the demand, viability, and adaptability of Kerala Cafe in metropolitan cities, making it a strong business opportunity for investors.
