Described as "Uber for chai," this tea delivery service is changing how Indians get their fix. New venture and emerging chain Chai Point has 81 cafes in four different cities, a tea dispenser business and offers on-call services.
People in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Delhi-NCR and Pune place an average of 1500 to 2000 orders every day through the Chai Point app and website. With a target demographic of "the white collar working Indian," the startup has a cool and contemporary approach to chai tea delivery that is both accessible and hygienic for customers. The brand's popular drinks include adrak chai or ginger tea as well as their masala chai.
This stands in interesting contrast to Western coffee delivery.
