Ajay’s Café expands Mumbai footprint, opens second outlet in Virar

The opening marks another step in Ajay’s Café’s planned expansion across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), where the company aims to open around 30 outlets over the coming year.

Ajay Solanki, Founder, Ajay’s Café, said, “After the strong response to our Nalasopara outlet, Virar was a natural next step for us. It is a vibrant market with a strong mix of students, young customers, families and working professionals, which fits well with the audience we serve. Our aim is to build a strong presence across the Mumbai region and ensuring consistency in food and service that our customers have come to expect.”

The Virar outlet offers Ajay’s Café’s range of burgers, cold coffee and other offerings. As part of the opening-day celebrations, customers were offered free cold coffees.

Ajay’s Café began its journey with a single outlet in Navsari, Gujarat, in 2014 and has since expanded to 286 outlets across 67 cities in Gujarat and Rajasthan. Its entry into Maharashtra with the opening of the Nalasopara outlet earlier this month marked the beginning of its planned expansion in the Mumbai region.

The company expects its growing presence in the Mumbai region to support its expansion in one of India’s largest food-service markets, while extending the brand beyond its established markets in Gujarat and Rajasthan.
