Food and coffee shop chain Pret A Manger has launched a dine-in location in Pune, in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
The 989ft² full-service store at Phoenix Mall of the Millennium offers Pret’s signature hand-crafted food as a dine-in experience.
Pret A Manger CEO Pano Christou stated: “India has re-imagined Pret in a way we’ve never seen before. The country’s rich tradition of dining together has inspired us to introduce our first-ever full-service concept – one that brings people together over fresh, high-quality food, served at their table.
“We are committed to bringing our signature Pret experience to more customers, blending global flavours with local tastes in a way that feels both familiar and new.”
Pret A Manger’s expansion in India has been swift, with the brand already establishing a presence in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR.
Founded in London in 1986, Pret A Manger has grown to almost 700 locations worldwide, with outlets in Belgium, Dubai, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, Switzerland, the UK and the US.
In June 2022, Pret A Manger collaborated with Reliance Brands Limited, a subsidiary of Reliance Retail Ventures Limited, to launch and build the Pret brand in India.
The first store under this partnership opened in Mumbai in April 2023.
Supporting its global expansion, Pret A Manger began a collaboration with YOOBIC, a provider of digital workplace solutions, in September 2024.
The partnership was aimed at enhancing support for Pret’s frontline teams and streamlining operations as the brand continues to grow internationally.
“Pret A Manger inaugurates dine-in location in Pune, India” was originally created and published by Verdict Food Service, a GlobalData owned brand.
