The tradition of drinking tea while standing on the road has a long history in India. However, the concept of “chai wala” in the context of a street tea shop became more prevalent during the British colonial era. Nowadays you will find tea seller by every name, engineer tea seller, MBA tea seller etc.
Presently Mr. Anubhav Dubey can be called the No. 1 Chaiwala in India. He is also known as the Kulhadman of India. He is the co-founder of a leading food and beverage company called Chai Sutta Bar. In 2016, they started with just three outlets in Indore and today they have over 450 outlets in over 195 cities in India, including Nepal as well as UAE. A small startup started from Indore has now become the largest tea chain in the country. Anubhav was just 22 years old when he started the tea business with his friend Anand Nayak. They now have more than 450 outlets in around 195 cities. Now he is expanding it to other countries also. He sells around 4.5 lakh kulhads of tea every day. Also they now have more than 2000 employees.
