Franchise development in India
India is a vast, fast-growing and intensely competitive F&B market — high volume, thin margins, and delivery-aggregator economics that can make or break a brand.
28+ years · 45+ restaurants launched · 300+ projects · founder-led
One good outlet is not a franchise.
FSSAI licensing, GST and state-by-state rules, heavy delivery-commission economics and a price-sensitive but brand-hungry diner make unit economics and menu engineering decisive in whether an India rollout scales or stalls.
- The brand works because you are in it — none of it is documented or transferable yet.
- Unit economics have never been modelled to the standard an investor or franchisee will demand.
- There is no operations manual, no training system, no brand book to hand a partner.
- Expansion is happening on relationships and gut, not a repeatable rollout playbook.
The GGB approach
Turn a proven outlet into an investable system.
We document what makes the brand work, build the unit economics an investor trusts, and give you a rollout playbook for the GCC, India and Singapore.
- 01
Readiness assessment
An honest read on whether the brand, systems and economics are ready to franchise — or what has to be built first.
- 02
Unit economics & model
The investable model: per-outlet economics, fees and a structure a franchisee and a financier can both underwrite.
- 03
Operations & brand documentation
The manuals, training and brand standards that let someone who is not you run it to standard.
- 04
Rollout playbook
A market-by-market expansion plan across the GCC, India and Singapore — paced to protect the brand.

Results, measured
We don't trade on logos. We show you the numbers.
Premium engagements are confidential — that discretion is part of what you're buying. What we show openly is exactly how a GGB result is measured; the named, classified outcomes we walk you through in conversation.
Food cost %
Theoretical vs actual, by item and by outlet — usually the fastest margin to recover.
Labour vs sales
Productivity per shift measured against revenue, not a blanket headcount cut.
Delivery economics
Channel mix and menu pricing rebuilt around real aggregator commission.
Payback
Every intervention measured against the capital and the time it takes to return.
Questions
- Do you work in India?
- Yes — GGB works across India, including India, plus Singapore, Oman and India. Premium engagements are founder-led.
- How many outlets do I need before franchising?
- Usually at least one strong, profitable unit with stable systems. The readiness review tells you honestly where you stand.
- Do you find franchisees for me?
- We build the system and the model first; partner sourcing and structuring follow once the brand is genuinely investable.
- Which markets do you cover?
- The GCC, India and Singapore, with the rollout paced to protect the brand in each.
