Channels

  • Retail counters
  • Home delivery
  • HORECA / sweet shops
Seasonality
Steady year-round
Daily offtake matters more than seasons; festival mithai demand can still create short peaks.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Equipment Maintenance

    Regular preventive maintenance of pasteurization and bottling equipment is essential to avoid downtime and ensure product safety.

  • Raw Material Sourcing

    Reliable supply of fresh milk and coffee flavoring is critical; fluctuations can impact cost and quality.

  • Quality Control Compliance

    Stringent QC and FSSAI registration are required to meet food safety standards and avoid rejection.

  • Power Supply Stability

    Uninterrupted power is needed for processing; backup generators or alternative energy sources may be necessary.
