Food and coffee shop chain Pret A Manger has launched a dine-in location in Pune, in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
The 989ft² full-service store at Phoenix Mall of the Millennium offers Pret's signature hand-crafted food as a dine-in experience.
Pret A Manger CEO Pano Christou stated: "India has re-imagined Pret in a way we've never seen before. The country's rich tradition of dining together has inspired us to introduce our first-ever full-service concept - one that brings people together over fresh, high-quality food, served at their table.
'We are committed to bringing our signature Pret experience to more customers, blending global flavours with local tastes in a way that feels both familiar and new."
Pret A Manger's expansion in India has been swift, with the brand already establishing a presence in Mumbai, Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR.
Founded in London in 1986, Pret A Manger has grown to almost 700 locations worldwide, with outlets in Belgium, Dubai, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, Switzerland, the UK and the US.
In June 2022, Pret A Manger collaborated with Reliance Brands Limited, a subsidiary of Reliance Retail Ventures Limited, to launch and build the Pret brand in India.
The first store under this partnership opened in Mumbai in April 2023.
Supporting its global expansion, Pret A Manger began a collaboration with YOOBIC, a provider of digital workplace solutions, in September 2024.
The partnership was aimed at enhancing support for Pret's frontline teams and streamlining operations as the brand continues to grow internationally.

Top Wall Street bank pitches options play to ride potential Indian rupee rally to 83
By Nimesh Vora MUMBAI (Reuters) -Goldman Sachs' sales and trading desk is recommending an options play on the Indian rupee that will pay off if the South Asian currency rallies to 83 per U.S. dollar over the next nine months. The call — effectively a bet on a 3% appreciation in the rupee from its current level of 85.50 — is underpinned by India's improving macroeconomic fundamentals, a revival in foreign inflows, lower oil prices, and the potential for a U.S.-India trade deal. The rupee has lagged behind its Asian peers this year, showing little response to the dollar index's more than 9% decline. Goldman Sachs is recommending buying a 9-month USD/INR binary put option with a strike price of 83. A binary put option is a type of digital option that pays a fixed amount if the currency pair settles below the strike level at the expiry of the contract. "We chose 9-month tenor for the trade as INR typically tends to appreciate during India's financial year end", which concludes on March 31, according to a sales note from Goldman Sachs. In support of their constructive outlook on the rupee, Goldman Sachs analysts highlighted that India's GDP growth accelerated to 7.4% year-on-year in the March quarter from 6.4% in the previous three months. Their monthly activity tracker indicates that consumption remained robust in April. The investment bank's note pointed to a return of foreign equity inflows, with over $4 billion flowing into Indian equities over the past two months. Goldman expects this trend to continue and potentially accelerate, driven by improving corporate earnings. The possibility of a U.S.-India trade deal and lower oil prices could be other catalysts for the rupee. Goldman said that a rollback of the 10% reciprocal tariff would be seen as a positive development for Indian risk assets and the rupee. While the U.S. had initially proposed a 26% levy on Indian shipmemts, the country-specific tariffs have been paused until July 8. On oil, Goldman's commodities research team expects Brent crude to average $60 for the remainder of 2025 and fall to $56 in 2026. Lower energy prices are a net positive for oil-importing countries like India and could support the rupee.

India is entering a 'Goldilocks' zone after central bank surprise: JPMorgan
Rajiv Batra, Head of Asia Equity Strategy at JPMorgan, says Indian markets are entering a 'Goldilocks' scenario following the Reserve Bank of India's bigger-than-expected rate cut, with falling inflation, rising liquidity, and lower borrowing costs set to boost growth.
