India’s fast-growing QSR coffee chain, Nothing Before Coffee (NBC), is marking a significant milestone this year as it complete nine years of brewing its journey from Jaipur to becoming a growing coffee brand across Bharat.
To mark the occasion, Nothing Before Coffee has announced its ninth anniversary celebrations with the launch of ‘9 to 99’, a two-day nationwide consumer offer under which beverages will be available at ₹99 across participating NBC outlets on 30 and 31 August.
The anniversary comes as the Jaipur-born brand scales its presence across Bharat, with 45+ cities across 12 states as of June 2026 and it has set its sights on crossing 170 outlets pan-India in FY27.
Founded in Jaipur in 2017, NBC has built its growth around a youth-focused proposition that combines accessible pricing, innovative beverages and vibrant café spaces. Over the years, the brand has expanded across metro, Tier-II and Tier-III markets, taking its café experience to a wider and increasingly aspirational consumer base.
Akshay Kedia, Co-Founder, Nothing Before Coffee, said: “Nine years of Nothing Before Coffee is a journey we have built together with our consumers. Our growth is a testament to the resonance of the brand and our focus on scalable, unit-economics-driven expansion across Bharat. For Gen Z in Tier-II and Tier-III towns, coffee is no longer just a functional beverage; it is increasingly an accessible lifestyle choice and a means of self-expression. Nine years later, as we serve consumers across 45+ cities, the ‘9 to 99’ offer is our way of taking that idea full circle, making our menu accessible at ₹99 to every community that has been part of this journey. From starting out in Jaipur to growing across markets, our focus has always remained on creating an accessible and relevant café experience for today’s India. As we enter our tenth year, we will continue to invest in our products, people and presence, while building NBC into a preferred social and café destination for the next generation of Indian consumers.”
