The global restaurant group has partnered with Travel Food Services to roll out brands such as Gordon Ramsay Plane Food and Street Pizza over the next three years.
Gordon Ramsay Restaurants is set to expand into India through its partnership with Travel Food Services (TFS), India’s leading travel food and beverage company. Under the agreement, six restaurants under the Gordon Ramsay Plane Food, Street Pizza, Street Burger and Gordon Ramsay Plane Food To-Go brands are scheduled to open in transport hubs across India.
The first two are due to launch in the final quarter of 2024, while the rest are expected to open by 2027.
Gordon Ramsay Restaurants holds eight Michelin stars between its 88 restaurants. It owns 34 restaurants in the UK, 32 in the US and an additional 22 across the globe, including in Shanghai, South Korea, Malaysia, France, Dubai, Singapore and Thailand.
Meanwhile, TFS operates in over 19 cities and manages more than 350 restaurants across airports and highways in India. It was founded by India’s K Hospitality Corp and partnered with SSP Group, UK.
Varun Kapur, executive director of TFS, said: “This is not just a launch; it’s a monumental culinary event! With this partnership, we are building on the food revolution in Indian airports that TFS has been passionately driving. Gordon Ramsay’s iconic brands will deliver an unprecedented fusion of flavour and finesse, further adding excitement to the Indian travellers’ journey and making their dining experience unforgettable.”
Andy Wenlock, chief executive of Gordon Ramsay Restaurants, added: “India’s rich culinary heritage and its reputation for hospitality make it the perfect landscape for our brands. With Travel Food Services, Indian airports are the new stage for our culinary journey, and we are excited to see how travellers embrace these vibrant, flavour-intense dining experiences.”
