The Roadmap
Built with discipline.
Scaled with intent.

Every milestone below was earned on the floor of our own outlets before it became a franchise story — a decade of decisions that turned one sports bar into a four-brand, pan-India hospitality platform.

The Studs
2017
Ambros World Foods is Founded

Miten Shah and Abhilash Menon launch The Studs — Sports Bar & Grill in Mumbai, India's first homegrown premium sports bar concept, and the seed of what would become Ambros.

The Studs
2019
National Recognition

The Studs is ranked among Mumbai's Top 10 Bars & Restaurants for four consecutive months and named the highest-rated sports bar brand in India.

The Studs
2021 – 2022
Franchise-Led Expansion

Ambros transitions to a fully franchise-led growth model, scaling The Studs across Mumbai and Pune without relying on company-owned outlets.

The Indian Peacock Kbites
2023
The Portfolio Diversifies

The Indian Peacock and Kbites join the family, taking Ambros from a single sports bar brand into fine dining and Korean QSR — and the founders are honoured with the Economic Times F&B Leaders Award.

Dravidian
2024
Four Brands, One Platform

Dravidian rounds out the portfolio with authentic South Indian cuisine, and Ambros is named India's Fastest Growing F&B Franchise, with end-to-end F&B consulting launched for aspiring entrepreneurs.

Our Story

We're in F&B
Since 2017.

We have built a diverse portfolio of restaurant and lifestyle brands designed for modern India — each with its own identity, audience, and story. From the premium fine dining experience of The Indian Peacock to the high-energy sports culture of The Studs, every Ambros brand is crafted with purpose, passion, and a deep understanding of what today's Indian consumer truly wants.

What started as a single restaurant has grown into a multi-brand company with outlets across India, run by a team that has done the work themselves — in kitchens, on the floor, and at the negotiating table — before ever asking a franchise partner to do the same.

Miten Shah & Abhilash Menon — Founders, Ambros World Foods
The Visionaries

Two Founders. One Obsession.

Ambros was built by two people who understood both sides of the table — the capital that makes a brand possible, and the floor-level craft that makes it last. That combination is still the reason every Ambros brand is built to be run, not just launched.

Miten Shah Co-Founder & Director — Finance & Strategy

A Chartered Accountant and former investment banker, Miten spent years in M&A, private equity, and fund-raising across the Asia-Pacific region — much of it inside the F&B industry itself. That background now shapes how Ambros structures every brand, franchise model, and investor return.

Abhilash Menon Co-Founder & Director — Operations & Concepts

Abhilash began his career as a bartender on international cruise ships and went on to work across leading global F&B brands, travelling to over 60 countries along the way. He leads Ambros's operations, projects, and concept development — the person who turns an idea into a working outlet.

The People Behind Ambros

A team that has built brands, opened outlets, and stood in real kitchens — before ever calling it a franchise model.
