US-based pizza retailer Papa John's will add 650 restaurants in India by 2033 with the first expected to debut in Bangalore next year, followed by openings in other South Indian towns.
The US pizza chain partnered with PJP Investments Group for the expansion.
Papa John’s has identified India as a launching board for worldwide expansion due to its significant size, expanding income, and rising middle class.
Amanda Clark, chief international and development officer of Papa John’s, noted that they first partnered with Papa Johns to expand into the UAE in 2005 and their commitment to the flawless execution of Papa John’s high standards is now geared towards India.
PJP Investments Group, which now owns over 100 Papa John's restaurants in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan, plans to launch the first Papa Johns store in Iraq next year.
Papa John’s is set to open 1350 shops in China by 2040 in collaboration with FountainVest Partners.
According to Papa Johns, it has over 5700 outlets in around 50 countries and territories as of last December.
