Tea Time’s affordable franchise cost makes it especially popular in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, where starting a low-cost business is key. The setup requires just ₹4.25–₹5.5 lakh and a 100–150 sq. ft. space, making it ideal for small towns with limited infrastructure. Tea consumption in these areas remains strong, and the brand’s low-price menu attracts regular footfall. Franchisees benefit from brand credibility, central raw material supply, and simplified operations. The Tea Time franchise cost structure ensures that even in smaller cities, entrepreneurs can build a successful local outlet with minimal financial stress.
