Nandini plans 120 new Bengaluru parlours after Amul metro row: What's behind the expansion

Nandini plans 120 new Bengaluru parlours after Amul metro row: What's behind the expansion

The Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) plans to open 120 new Nandini milk parlours in Bengaluru, as reported by The Hindu. This expansion comes in response to the earlier controversy surrounding Amul kiosks at Bengaluru Metro stations. KMF aims to make Nandini products more accessible at high-footfall locations, and the new outlets will be located outside metro stations and within the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) limits.

According to a senior KMF official, the federation held meetings with BMRCL before receiving permission for the 30 outlets outside metro stations. Unlike the Amul kiosks, the new Nandini parlours will be situated outside stations. The expansion is not limited to metro-adjacent locations, as KMF has also received permission to establish around 90 parlours at civic amenity locations within the GBA limits.

This move places Nandini closer to public transport hubs and civic spaces, providing consumers with regular footfall more convenient access to the dairy products.
