Teak & Torch – Design-led furniture retail franchise opportunity.
Teak & Torch is a growing design-led furniture brand focused on making high-quality, customizable furniture accessible to Indian consumers at transparent price points.

We are now looking to expand through franchise-owned retail stores in high-potential markets.

Xin by MindEscapes is a Pan-Asian restaurant brand and idea café born from the bold street flavours of Calcutta and rooted in the MindEscapes ideation and hospitality ecosystem. Operated by Mindescapes Club Private Limited, Xin combines Asian comfort food with a community and ideas engine: every table carries challenge cards and a "Wall of Inspiration" that turns meals into conversations, votes and visible ideas. The brand runs multiple formats — Xin Go (grab-and-go bowls), Xin Den (neighbourhood idea cafés) and Xin Fine (chef-led destination dining) — all powered by a common operating system and open kitchen. The business model is FOCO (Franchise Owned, Company Operated): partners invest and bring local property and networks, while Xin controls menu, operations, recruitment, training, marketing, technology and quality. With existing outlets in Bengaluru and the Nilgiris, Xin focuses on high-frequency bowls, noodles, and rice, complemented by dim sum, baos, bings, sushi, and ramen. Competitive differentiation lies in its strong design, disciplined kitchen architecture (My Bowl My Way), community-led dining experience, and the backing of the MindEscapes hospitality and ideation ecosystem. This makes Xin an attractive opportunity for investors who want a controlled, scalable, premium Pan-Asian brand that can dominate select South Indian catchments rather than compete in overcrowded metros. Operates with a valid GST and FSSAI license.
