Chinese Wok, India’s largest Chinese QSR chain under Lenexis Foodworks, has received an overwhelming response in Kolkata, reaffirming the city’s love for Indo-Chinese flavors. With a strong presence in Newtown, Chinar Park, Park Street, and Metropolis Mall, the brand is now intensifying its expansion in East India, bringing its signature flavors to even more food enthusiasts.

Currently operating in over 220 locations across 35+ cities, Chinese Wok has set ambitious growth targets—aiming for a sales run rate of ₹650 crore by March 2025 and ₹1000 crore by FY26. The brand plans to establish 100 new restaurants in 20 cities by FY25, with a long-term vision of reaching 500+ outlets in three years. Kolkata remains a key market, with 25+ new outlets planned in the region over the next year.

“Kolkata has been a key market for us, and the response to Chinese Wok over the past few months has reaffirmed our confidence in the city's immense potential,” said Aayush Madhusudan Agrawal, Founder and Director of Lenexis Foodworks. “We are now focused on expanding our network, strengthening our supply chain, and creating job opportunities while maintaining our commitment to high-quality, affordable Indo-Chinese cuisine.”

The expansion will generate significant employment opportunities across kitchen operations, customer service, logistics, and supply chain management. Lenexis Foodworks also plans to collaborate with local vendors and suppliers to ensure fresh ingredient sourcing and sustainable growth.

To celebrate its Kolkata debut, Chinese Wok is launching exclusive limited-time offers:

  • SuperBowl Combo – A no-conditions meal deal featuring Rice or Noodles, paired with Manchurian Gravy and Pepsi.

  • Wok Wednesday BOGO – Buy one, get one free on select dishes.

  • Super Sundays – Exciting offers on the entire menu.

Understanding the city’s diverse palate, Chinese Wok will introduce region-specific dishes along with immersive digital dining experiences, including an AR-powered ordering widget, CGI animations, and an interactive Instagram game designed to engage food lovers.

With an expanding portfolio that includes Chinese Wok, Big Bowl Co., and The Momo Co., Lenexis Foodworks continues to push the boundaries of quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction. The East India expansion reflects the company’s mission to make high-quality, affordable, and flavorful dining experiences accessible across the country.
