The brief

Built for how India reads a restaurant group

Indian readers scan for numbers, brand stories and franchise terms on a phone, and they expect lakh and crore, not millions. The edition rewrites the corporate copy around those habits: brand origins move to Bengaluru, Pune and Mumbai, system sales read ₹4,00,000 crore and quarterly results ₹17,500 crore. It adds a DPDP-compliant privacy policy with a Grievance Officer, a demo CIN and GSTIN in the footer, and FSSAI references where food safety is mentioned.

Brand adaptation

The same Angeethi Brands, with a local accent

Warm cream and ink carry the interface, with accent brown for eyebrows and numbers, teal for links and saffron for emphasis. Eczar and Mukta both include Devanagari, so a Hindi edition can follow without a new type system. The descriptor stays Brands, the usual term for a multi-brand restaurant group in India.

Homepage and key journeys

A full-bleed dining-room hero eases in from a dim zoom. Below it, a slow-scrolling ribbon of brand names leads into a statement that lights up word by word as you scroll. Live counters tick up to restaurants, team members and system sales in lakh and crore. The page then flows into brand cards, strategy, impact and the latest news. The most distinctive flow is the newsroom: filter chips for Press, Story, Snapshot and Video work alongside a brand selector, and a shareable ?brand= URL lets brand teams link straight to their own coverage.

Compliance, accessibility and trust

• Privacy policy under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023, naming Angeethi Brands India Pvt Ltd as Data Fiduciary, with a Grievance Officer and the Data Protection Board.
• Footer with a demo CIN and GSTIN, plus links to Privacy policy, Terms and Grievance redressal.
• FSSAI licence reference where food safety is mentioned; SEBI filings for investor content.
• Passes automated WCAG 2.2 AA checks on every page at 360, 390, 768 and 1440 px: no contrast failures, no unreachable controls, no horizontal scrolling.
• A language switcher built from hreflang sits in the header on desktop and in the footer on phones.

One system, twelve markets

Every visible string lives in one file per market, and every colour and typeface in one theme file. This edition needed no new templates or components: a strings file, a theme, regional photography and local legal content made it a different brand experience. For a restaurant group with international plans, a new market becomes a content project rather than a rebuild.
