Hello Readers, 

One of India’s largest homegrown hospitality and food services corporations today, K Hospitality operates 500-plus outlets in the hospitality, food services, and travel retail industry across the country.

Founded in 1972, it operates popular brands including Copper Chimney, Bombay Brasserie, The Irish House, Punkah House, Cafeccino, Josh, Curry Kitchen, and Blue Seas Banquets and Caterers, among others.

Today, K Hospitality has a workforce of over 6,000 and operates 500-plus outlets — which it now plans to take to 1,000 over the next five years.
