Gianis is a legendary Indian ice cream brand founded in 1956 by Giani Gurcharan Singh at Chandni Chowk, Delhi. Famous for its signature Rabri Faluda recipe, Gianis has grown to over 350 franchise stores across 7 states. Now in its 63rd year of operations, the brand offers ice creams, sundaes, falooda, thick shakes, ice cream cakes, cassatas, ice cream sodas, and stick kulfis. The manufacturing facility is designed to international quality standards.
Gianis provides 20 days of training at the franchise location covering product preparation, store operations, customer service, and quality control. The brand handles marketing through digital and outdoor media. Agreement term is 5 years with renewal option at Rs 2.5 lakh. Security deposit of Rs 90,000 required.
A Gianis franchise needs a total investment of between ₹12.6 lakh and ₹15.1 lakh. That includes a one-time franchise fee of ₹5 lakh. The figures come from the brand and can vary by location and outlet size.
Gianis asks for roughly 80 sq ft. A typical outlet runs with about 3 staff.
Gianis estimates a payback period of about 1 year. This is the brand's own estimate and depends heavily on location, rent, and how the outlet is run, so treat it as a guide rather than a promise.
Gianis operates on the FOFO model. The model decides who owns the outlet and who runs it day to day, which affects how involved you are and how much of the risk sits with you.
Gianis is currently looking for franchise partners in Delhi, Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Lucknow, and Indore, and 5 other cities. Submit an enquiry to check availability in your area.
Gianis provides training, operations manual, marketing support, and supply chain. Details of what each covers are on this page, and the brand can confirm specifics for your location.
Gianis was established in 1956 and operates around 350 outlets. Track record is worth weighing alongside the investment figures when comparing brands in the food & beverage category.
