The brand has a legacy of over a hundred years, and it was the first milkshake brand to originate from India. “Keventers”, a vintage dairy brand dated back to 1925 when Edward Keventers, a Swedish dairy technologist first established his dairy plant in the Chanakyapuri area, in the seventies.The dairy plant was later acquired by Ram Krishna Dalmia,who founded the Dalmia Group which was then ranked amongst the top 3 industrial houses in India.Agastya Mihir Dalmia, third generation scion of the Dalmia family is now reintroducing and recreating the Keventers brand giving it a brand new look and feel, and taste profile as well.
Dynamic young entrepreneurs, Aman Arora and Agastya Mihir Dalmiahave a vision to bring this iconic brand into 21st Century Delhi, bridging the gap between the classic and the contemporary. Sohrab Sitaram – another partner in the venture, brings his immense experience on board with the duo in reviving the Capital’s favourite frothy flavours. Mr. Sitaram is one of the most recognised names in the hospitality industry and the man behind the city’s most appreciated venues such as Tabularasa, Chi, Hungry Monkey and the newly opened Zingo Star in Greater Kailash II.
Keventers brings alive the signature flavours that made it a favourite for it’s rich milkshakes, among the young and old alike. Keeping alive the vintage flavour, Keventers brings you classics like the Tutti Frutti and Hawaiian Passion. However, taking a more youthful and vibrant taste into consideration, there is a modern and contemporary palette as well, with Melting Roses Milkshake, Mint Oreo Crumble and Hulk’s Bulk. Fresh fruit toppings, rich dark oreo cookies, a smattering of peanut butter, or the fresh flavours of mint; are just some of the scrumtious flavours waiting for you at Keventers.
Explaining the vision behind the brand, Agastya says, “It was very exciting to recreate this brand and revive its former glory. I dug up all the old collaterals, the old recipes and some old packaging material and decided to put it all together.With a vision of opening four Keventers outlets in New Delhi’s premium malls, the plan is to develop a franchise model by the end of the year and spread it throughout India.” Adds Aman Arora, “It’s young, it’s fun, but it is also classic and promises to bring alive memories of the familiar flavours we all grew up with. As we are also catering to a modern and younger audience, we have ensured that there is also a sense of adventure and discovery with a newer taste profile.”
