The problem

Authentic Punjabi flavour doesn’t survive scale.

Consumers crave the bold, smoky taste of real Punjabi food — but the branded, hygienic, consistent version is missing from the market.

  • 01

    Mass-market brands miss the real thing. National QSRs simplify Punjabi snacks and gravies into something far from the original.

  • 02

    Consistency is the weak point. Even where Punjabi food exists, taste and quality swing wildly from one place to the next.

  • 03

    Home recipes don’t scale. There is a real gap between a traditional kitchen and the ability to produce it at volume, with hygiene and control.

  • 04

    No one owns the category. Punjabi food is loved everywhere, yet there is no globally recognised, scalable brand behind it — a market worth USD 4.5 billion by 2027.

Traction

Proven on the ground, ready to replicate.

Real outlets, real revenue, and a supply chain already built for the next hundred.

The market

A large, fast-growing market with no clear owner.

Indian food is one of the world’s favourite cuisines, and the branded, scalable Punjabi player has not yet arrived.

Why Kobabi

Punjabi cooking that survives being scaled.

  • Recipes, not shortcuts

    Our spice blends, marinades and gravies are developed in-house from Punjabi culinary traditions. From Lemon Champ to Dal Makhni, every item is built on a recipe rather than a mix.

  • One kitchen behind every outlet

    All products are made at our own manufacturing facility in Ludhiana and distributed to each outlet. That is how the Mohali plate tastes like the Talwara plate.

  • Built for Tier 2 and Tier 3

    Big chains skip the smaller cities. We started in them — Machhiwara Sahib, Talwara, Mohali and Nawanshahr — because that is where branded, hygienic Indian food is genuinely missing.

  • Range without losing the plot

    Tandoori and gravies for the regulars, pizzas and wraps for the evening crowd, Chinese and sides to fill the gaps. One counter, several reasons to come back.

The vision

100+ outlets in three years. India’s trusted Punjabi QSR.
