How Lahori Zeera Made India Drink Local Again — One ₹10 Bottle at a Time

From a small kitchen in Punjab to a ₹300+ crore desi beverage empire — Lahori Zeera is proof that simplicity, authenticity, and consistency always win. 💥

Three cousins — Saurabh Munjal, Saurabh Bhutna & Nikhil Doda — started with a simple idea: bring back the nostalgic desi masala drink loved across India.
No fancy packaging. No celebrity faces. Just pure taste, priced at ₹10.

Their drink didn’t just sell — it connected.
Word of mouth made it a household name, spreading to 18 states, 5 lakh+ retail outlets, and 2,000 distributors, with revenue touching ₹312 crore in 2024. 🚀

The lesson?
You don’t need complex innovation to build an empire.
You need authenticity, consistency, and clarity — the kind of clarity that tells your audience exactly who you are and what you stand for.

Lahori Zeera didn’t sell a product — they sold pride in Indian flavour.
And that’s what made India drink local again. 🇮🇳

✨ Build something rooted. Build something real.
Because India’s next big brands won’t come from boardrooms — they’ll come from backyards, kitchens, and small towns that dream big.
