Temasek-backed Indian snack giant Haldiram's opens its first UK restaurant in London's Leicester Square, marking European expansion for the major Indian FMCG and QSR brand.

Why this matters

The UK launch builds on Haldiram's global momentum as Indian mithai exports surge 10% and the brand scales export capacity alongside Dadu Mithai Vatika, extending its FMCG and QSR reach into Europe.

Store openings hold steady with 1,255 signals over the past 90 days.
