Pizza Wings, the Haryana-based quick-service restaurant (QSR) brand, has secured $2.8 million in a follow-up funding round from marquee investors, including Gruhas—the investment arm of Nikhil Kamath and Abhijeet Pai, Udaan co-founder Sujeet Kumar, and other strategic backers. This comes after its $4 million seed investment in 2024, reaffirming investor confidence in the brand’s growth potential.

Fueling National Growth

With this latest funding, Pizza Wings is set to expand its footprint across Northern and North-Eastern India, with a strong focus on Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. The brand plans to add 50 new stores, taking its total count to 100 outlets by the end of 2025. Unlike global QSR giants that focus primarily on metros, Pizza Wings is tapping into emerging urban markets, catering to India’s growing demand for premium fast food.

A Vision Rooted in Quality and Innovation

Founded in 2014 by Aditya Dhanda, with Rajpal Sangwan and Vikas Nain as co-founders, Pizza Wings has carved a niche with its “Fresh Dough, Fresh Ingredient” philosophy. The brand prides itself on using daily-prepared dough, zero preservatives, and customizable pizzas tailored to Indian tastes.

“Our commitment to fresh ingredients, great flavors, and a technology-first approach has resonated with customers,” said Aditya Dhanda, CEO of Pizza Wings. “This funding will help us expand while staying true to our core values, ultimately making Pizza Wings a leading food-tech brand in India.”

Tech-Driven Growth Strategy

Pizza Wings isn’t just a QSR brand—it’s a rising food-tech leader. With 80% of deliveries managed through its proprietary platform, the company reduces dependency on third-party aggregators, ensuring better efficiency and customer experience. Its rider and store management applications streamline operations, resulting in over 500,000 app downloads and market leadership in multiple cities.

Investor Confidence in Pizza Wings

Sujeet Kumar, Co-founder of Udaan, highlighted Pizza Wings’ strong unit economics and tech-driven approach, stating:

“With 80% of deliveries managed in-house, Pizza Wings is more than just a food brand—it’s a fast-emerging food-tech leader.”

Abhijeet Pai, Partner at Gruhas, added:

“With this funding, Pizza Wings is set to become a dominant force in India’s fast-food industry. Their expansion to 100 outlets by 2025 and plans to scale to 400 stores by 2027 reflect a well-structured growth strategy. We’re excited to support their journey.”

The Road Ahead

As Pizza Wings continues to expand, the company is also strengthening its corporate team across finance, logistics, and marketing. With long-term plans for an IPO, the brand is not just growing in numbers—it’s building an industry legacy.

With its commitment to quality, tech-driven efficiency, and bold expansion plans, Pizza Wings is poised to become a dominant player in India’s evolving food-tech ecosystem.
