Bringing English style Gastro Pubs to major cities of India, the British Brewing Company is ready to spearhead with Rs 100 crores with one of the major finance services firm, NeoMile Capital. The funds were raised in an equity round led by NeoMile Capital. The British Brewing Company is set to utilize these funds to fuel their growth plans, by getting a stronger hold in cities like Bangalore, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Nagpur, Pune and Jaipur. Moreover, the BBC had chalked down their plan for the next 18-24 months, which includes over 30 new outlets and a Micro-Brewery.

Established in the year 2012, the British Brewery Company has seven outlets spread across Mumbai and Pune. The firm believes that the alco-beverage space in India is set to witness a rise and will attract footfalls. 

The BBC has been delivering the ambiance one can experience in a local pub, bar or restaurant located in the towns of Great Britain. They replicate the same atmosphere of relaxation and is a place where family and friends alike can enjoy. Moreover, the menu and the unmatched choices when it comes to beer and cocktail choices make it a place to be.
