A branded packaged-food unit turning Indore's famous namkeen and street-snack repertoire (poha mix, sev, Indori masala blends) into shelf-stable retail SKUs for modern trade, e-commerce, and the diaspora gifting market.

This fixes the mis-tagged cloud-kitchen mashup (it was filed under tourism) and commits to the stronger packaged-food thread, which is what scales. It builds on the district's Indori namkeen and food-processing atom and the potato and Malwa farm belt — Indore is the recognised namkeen capital — and captures the namkeen gap, taking loose, unbranded snacks into packaged, branded retail. The unit produces sev, mixtures, poha-ready mixes, and Indori spice blends under one brand, sold through modern-trade grocery, quick-commerce, e-commerce, and diaspora gifting. Indore's air, rail and logistics hub atom makes outbound distribution cheap. Buyers are urban retail grocery, online snack shoppers, and NRI gifting. The real constraints: shelf-life and rancidity control for fried snacks (nitrogen flushing, moisture barriers), FSSAI licensing and clean-room hygiene, and standing out in a crowded packaged-namkeen shelf where incumbents are strong — brand and a distinctly Indori identity are the differentiators. Start with a tight hero range (signature mixture plus poha mix), prove repeat purchase, then extend SKUs.
