Own a Cruncho

A low-cost food franchise built around popcorn and corn

Cruncho is a small snack counter that pops popcorn, tosses masala corn and roasts nuts fresh to order. The footprint is small, the menu is short, and the setup is quick, which keeps the cost of opening low.

You run one tight counter instead of a full kitchen, so you can start in a kiosk, a mall corner or a cart.

Crunch facts

Popcorn pops because the small amount of water inside each kernel turns to steam and bursts the hull when it heats past roughly 180C.
Popcorn is a whole grain, so a plain popped bowl keeps the bran and germ of the kernel.

Questions, answered

What makes Cruncho a low-cost franchise?

The counter is small, the menu is short and the equipment list is limited, so both the space and the fit-out cost less than a full restaurant.

How much space do I need?

A kiosk, a mall corner or a cart is enough. Cruncho is built to run from a small footprint.

Do I need food experience?

No. The menu is short and we train you on popping, tossing and serving before you open.

Which cities can I open in?

We are based in Chennai and are opening enquiries for new cities. Tell us where you are and we will talk it through.
