Franchise & partnership

Open an IDLO in your neighbourhood.

IDLO serves idli, dosa and South Indian breakfast to Pune. If you’d like to bring it to your area as a franchise partner, we’d like to hear from you.

The concept

A focused South Indian menu, built around the idli.

The IDLO menu has 33 items across 8 sections: idli, button idli, dosa, uttappam, medu vada, breakfast plates, rice and beverages, priced from ₹10 to ₹150.

The brand is designed to be recognisable: a banana-leaf logo, a green-and-yellow identity and the tagline “South Ka Aslee Swaad!”. Details of the outlet format, set-up and support are shared with prospective partners during the enquiry process.

People who want to run a neighbourhood food business.

  • Entrepreneurs planning their first food outlet
  • Existing restaurant or café operators adding a brand
  • Investors who already have a location in mind
  • Anyone who enjoys South Indian food and day-to-day hospitality
