Own a Chai Bunk franchise in Srikakulam — North Coastal Andhra's fastest-growing Tier 3 market with zero royalty and full setup support.
Srikakulam is the northernmost coastal district of Andhra Pradesh, bordering Odisha, and is undergoing rapid infrastructure development with the Bhavanapadu port project and expanding NH-516 corridor. The district headquarters town has a growing government employee base, active market activity, and strong student population from several colleges and the Andhra University satellite campus.
Organised branded chai is virtually absent — making Srikakulam a first-mover market for Chai Bunk. With zero royalty for AP franchisees and low real estate costs compared to coastal metros, margins here are excellent.
The aquaculture belt connecting Palasa to Narasannapeta creates year-round commercial activity that translates to consistent chai demand from workers, traders, and daily commuters.
