In a significant move for the Indian food & beverage landscape, Curefoods has officially acquired pan-India rights for Krispy Kreme, the iconic global doughnut and coffee brand. This acquisition marks a pivotal chapter in Krispy Kreme’s India journey, enabling unified brand operations across the country and accelerating national expansion.
Based in Bengaluru, Curefoods has until now held exclusive rights to Krispy Kreme’s South India operations. The new deal brings the brand’s North India outlets under Curefoods’ umbrella and lays the groundwork for future growth in West India.
📍 Expanding Footprint: From South to North and Beyond
As part of the acquisition, Curefoods has taken over 11 Krispy Kreme locations in the Delhi NCR region, including:
- Worldmark Aerocity
- Select City Walk Mall, Saket
- Ambience Mall, Gurgaon
- Promenade Mall, Vasant Kunj
- Mall of India, Noida
These outlets include seven physical retail stores and four cloud kitchens, increasing Krispy Kreme’s accessibility in one of India’s most vibrant metropolitan markets.
With this expansion, Curefoods now operates over 100 Krispy Kreme outlets across India, combining dine-in locations with its robust network of cloud kitchens.
💬 “This marks a pivotal step in Krispy Kreme’s India journey,” said Ankit Nagori, Founder of Curefoods. “With full national rights now under our umbrella, we are excited to build a unified strategy for brand growth, customer experience, and innovation across the country. Delhi NCR is just the beginning, and we are committed to scaling Krispy Kreme in a way that’s sustainable, accessible, and exciting for our consumers.”
🚀 A New Phase of Growth for Krispy Kreme India
The acquisition not only gives Curefoods operational control across the entire country but also positions it to expand aggressively in untapped high-potential regions such as Mumbai, Pune, and Ahmedabad. By aligning distribution and branding under one leadership team, Krispy Kreme India is set to enhance consistency, scale rapidly, and innovate across its product offerings.
Curefoods brings a deep understanding of India’s evolving consumer market through its portfolio of successful brands such as EatFit, CakeZone, Nomad Pizza, and Frozen Bottle. Founded in 2020, the company leverages a tech-first, cloud kitchen-driven model that enables efficient operations and a fast-paced scale-up—well-aligned with Krispy Kreme’s growth ambitions.
🥯 What This Means for Franchisees
This development significantly strengthens Krispy Kreme’s brand value and consumer reach across India, making it an even more attractive proposition for potential franchisees. Unified brand management, pan-India supply chains, and tech-driven operations will create opportunities for long-term profitability and scalable expansion.
