Products & Services Overview
Kolaba Coffee Roasters has built its reputation around specialty-grade coffee, authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas, and handcrafted bakes — a unique combination that appeals to India’s rapidly growing urban café culture. Our signature coffee blends and wood-fired pizzas were consistent bestsellers at our first outlet, drawing strong repeat business and delivery demand. Customers — primarily young professionals, entrepreneurs, and families — visited Kolaba not just for the food, but for the brand’s warm atmosphere and artisanal quality. By merging third-wave coffee craftsmanship with premium casual dining, Kolaba established itself as a lifestyle-driven café brand with high customer loyalty and strong potential for scalable growth across NCR and beyond.

Facilities Overview
Kolaba’s first café operated from a 2,000 sq. ft. leased space in Gurugram, featuring a warm, modern design with 60+ covers across indoor and outdoor seating. The outlet included a dedicated coffee bar, live pizza kitchen, and small back-end prep area.
For the upcoming phase, we plan to establish a central base kitchen of approximately 2,000 sq. ft. in Gurugram, on long-term lease, which will serve as the backbone for food preparation, roasting, and logistics. The new outlets (each 1200-1500 sqft) will be located across Gurugram, ensuring high footfall and delivery efficiency.
All future locations will operate on leased premises, with interiors and kitchen layouts optimized for scalability, operational efficiency, and consistent customer experience.
Capitalization Overview
The business is currently self-funded by the founder, Mr. Abhimanyu Jham, with early-stage investment support from Mr. Kavya Garg, Ankit Gupta (ex-Thirdwave operations head) and Gaurav Arora — Abhimanyu Jham (50%), Kavya Garg (15%), Ankit Gupta (20%) and Gaurav Arora (15%)
Kolaba currently has no bank loans. All previous operations were financed through internal accruals and founder capital. The company is now seeking ₹1 crore in equity investment to fund the relaunch and expansion phase across Gurugram.
