Joe & The Juice will be added to the group’s existing food services line-up, which includes international brands and home-grown concepts.

ABNAH founder Aryaman Vikram Birla said: “India is at an inflection point of consumption, led by structural tailwinds of rising discretionary spending, favourable demographics and premiumisation.

“We believe that Joe & The Juice is uniquely positioned at the convergence of health, convenience, and experience. It squarely fits into our strategy for the hospitality business and sets a strong foundation for scalable formats.”

The first Joe & The Juice outlet in India is planned to open in the second half of 2026.
