Chaiiwala opens first 24-hour drive thru

Chaiiwala, the Indian street food café brand, has opened its first 24-hour drive thru café, at Grimshaw Retail Park in Blackburn. The opening will also allow the group to test the suitability of 24-hour drive thru locations as part of its future expansion plans. The group now operates five drive thru sites, with two new locations – Nottingham and Blackburn – opened by franchisees within the last six months. The business plans to reach 500 global locations within the next ten years, with a strong focus on expanding across the UK and strengthening its presence in key urban locations and cities. Founded in Leicester in 2015, Chaiiwala currently operates circa 115 sites across the UK, 23 in Canada and a handful in Dubai. 

Richard Negus, of AG&G, acted on this deal on behalf of the Vendor, Burger King.
