About Wow! Momo
Wow! Momo is an Indian quick-service restaurant chain that specializes in momos, a type of dumpling popular in India and other parts of South Asia. The company was founded in 2008 in Kolkata by Sagar Daryani and Binod Homagai, and has since grown to become one of the largest momo chains in India, with over 425 outlets across the country.
The company operates on a hybrid business model that includes both company-owned and franchised outlets. This has allowed Wow! Momo to expand rapidly while maintaining control over its brand and quality. The company's outlets are typically located in high-footfall areas such as malls, tech parks, and high streets, which helps to attract a steady stream of customers.
Wow! Momo's menu features a wide variety of momos, including steamed, fried, and pan-fried options, with a range of fillings to suit different tastes. The company also offers a selection of other dishes, such as burgers, and desserts. The company makes money through the sale of its food and beverages at its outlets, as well as through franchise fees and royalties.
