Success Story ……………………………………………………… Making Customers Eat Happy... Gaurav Jain CEO and Founder, Mast

Kalandar

Gaurav Jain, along with his wife Pallavi Jain, dreamt of doing something of their own during their IMT Ghaziabad days. After 5 years of working as IT professionals and officially travelling across Asia-pacific region, they felt stagnant and decided to follow their dreams of entrepreneurship. In 2004, they came back from Australia from a one year assignment, and typically like an MBA started working on market research, excel work and related financials on three ideas. Out of the three ideas namely, fresh vegetables and fruit chain, selling fruit juice and the last connected with fresh Indian food, they zeroed on the last one. The couple invested their personal saving of Rs 20 lakh to get started with. In Feb 2005, they opened the first restaurant on Bannerghatta Road in Bengaluru. Now, as a part of Spring Leaf Retail Pvt. Ltd., Mast Kalandar currently has 22 branches (18 in Bengaluru, 1 in Chennai and 3 in Hyderabad) across south India and has expansion plan of 100 branches in upcoming years. With 22 outlets at present, Mast Kalandar revenues are close to Rs. 18.7 crores. Recently, Mast Kalandar has raised its Series B round of funding from Helion Venture Partners, Series A backer Footprint Ventures and Salarpuria Group, an angel investor in the company. The USP of Mast Kalandar, to deliver with the promise of authentic, tasty and healthy north Indian food, has made Mast Kalandar customers happy eaters who often come back for more. Jains positioned the food as “Authentic, vegetarian, homemade style North Indian food” and targeted the working professionals looking for regular eating out options, light on their stomachs and wallets. To fulfil the positioned product of homemade food, they decided to use only quality ingredients which we use at home. Their decision to offer freshly cooked food everyday is the biggest differentiator and also the biggest challenge. This means the Jains have had to evolve their own supply chain. Mast Kalandar calls it “Hub and spoke” model, having four steps to fresh food. Starting from sourcing, where in the centralized kitchen in every city they operate in, fresh ingredients and vegetables are sourced and mixed with spices to form a partially cooked and unfinished product. These unfinished products are then

Success Story ……………………………………………………… shipped to outlets, where meals are put in final stage of cooking before serving to customers or being home delivered. The food is transported in special hot boxes, that keep food from spoiling up to 10 hours. To make every customer eat happy, Mast Kalandar ensures the authentic taste of north Indian food by striking partnerships with vendors across India like its papads come from Rajasthan, pickles from Meerut and Jaipur to count a few. Another differentiator of this QSR (Quick Service Restaurant) is ‘preplated meals’, which allows Mast Kalandar to create more saleable menu options out of fewer ingredients or dishes. The next challenge to Mast Kalandar is it’s decision to expand to 100 QSR , which includes north India too. But Gaurav firmly believes that he will find customers for his geek food in North India too. According to Gaurav, there is no ‘right time’ in your life to do something you are passionate about. The ‘right time’ is all when you jump into it.
