In a major step forward for premium lifestyle and beverage experiences, Tea Avenue, Sri Lanka’s most beloved homegrown tea café chain, is all set to mark its India entry in collaboration with FranGlobal, the international business arm of Franchise India Group. This strategic alliance heralds a new chapter in cross-border brand expansion and reflects the ever-growing appetite for curated global tea experiences among Indian consumers.
Gaurav Marya, chairman, Franchise India Group, said, “India has a deep, cultural love affair with tea, and Tea Avenue is more than just a café- it’s a sensorial journey steeped in heritage. This partnership is about delivering authenticity, innovation, and creating modern tea experiences that feel personal and premium. We are excited to bring this globally admired brand to the Indian market at a time when consumer demand for artisanal and high-quality F&B formats is at an all-time high.”
With this collaboration, Tea Avenue has ambitious plans to open multiple outlets across India’s metropolitan cities in the next 12 to 18 months, beginning with Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. Operating under a Franchise-Owned, Franchise-Operated (FOFO) model. The brand offers a flexible franchise format—from full cafes and mini cafés to hotel tea corners and kiosks—designed to suit different investor goals and locations.
Sajeev De Silva, founder, Tea Avenue, said, “India has always been a dream destination for us. There’s a unique emotional and cultural alignment between Sri Lanka and India when it comes to tea. With FranGlobal’s expertise and reach, we are confident that our brand will find a second home here and build lasting connections with Indian tea lovers.”
