Brands

BRANDS WE WORK WITH

Franchising is integral to our business model. We have successfully operated multi-location restaurants for several brands. Our ability to take ownership, be transparent, and adapt to the flavor and style of any brand, helps us build deep business relationships that last for years. We bring in our own processes and recommendations to help elevate the brand experience.

 

Our own brand Santrupti has its legacy in a family-owned, South Indian tiffin styled restaurant that opened in the 1970’s and was tailored to suit the local palate and wallet. The restaurant was a resounding success, prompting us to open Santrupti in a high profile location in Bangalore.

Dramatic interiors, exceptional taste, high-quality service and high-perceived value, are all characteristics of our restaurant. Locals come in for a quick bite to eat and food that tastes ‘just like mother makes it’. Fresh, healthy, nutritious and tasty, that’s how our patrons describe the food served at Santrupti.
