The space will also have an option for diners to come and dine on an all day dining menu. This space can also be rented out for baking / cooking classes to be hosted by the participating chefs where part of the proceeds will go to the owner. This model will allow self generating rents that can be used towards monthly operating expenses. Having run successfully in India for the last 10 years, we are now looking at using the franchising model to further our reach. We are looking at increasing our presence in major cities of India and across the globe following the above model. The goodwill of the Company and its popularity in Mumbai makes it an attractive choice. The freshness of the baked goods and the fun and creative nature of the brand makes it a brand of choice for interested franchisees.

CueKids is an innovative learning initiative launched by Simply Body Talk, a company specializing in the niche domain of nonverbal communication since 12 years. With over a decade of experience training senior leaders at leading organizations, we recognized a powerful gap in how children understand and develop nonverbal communication skills. Extensive research and analysis of competitor offerings revealed that while academic and skill-based learning for children is widely available, structured programs focusing on body language, emotional intelligence, and nonverbal behaviour are largely overlooked. Our philosophy has always been to teach an approach, not just provide temporary takeaways. We focus on long-term behavioural transformation. CueKids brings this same proven methodology to children, delivered through engaging activities, interactive games, and fun challenges that stimulate critical thinking while building confidence and awareness. Our programs help children: - Improve confidence and self-expression. - Understand body language and emotional cues. - Develop stronger communication skills. - Enhance social intelligence and leadership traits. - Build long-term interpersonal skills in a fun environment. The company is registered under GST and holds ISO certification, reflecting structured processes, quality standards, and operational credibility.
