Fancy some Butter Chicken, Beef Vindaloo or Rogan Josh? Aussie's love to enjoy a good Indian curry. 

With over 2,000 restaurants for sale in Australia on Bsale, Indian cuisine makes up a small percentage. However, there are some good opportunities available for new business owners or those looking to expand their current restaurant chain. 

Masterchef contestants Kishwar Chowdhury, Justin Narayan and Depinder Chhibber recently showcased the beauty of curries from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, with Justin Narayan winning the 2021 Australian Masterchef. Combining Australian flavours with South Asian spices, contestants showed a fusion never before seen on the show.

In the Nothern Territory, Kishwar prepared a Hariyali Chicken, Wattleseed Naan, Bush Tomato and Quandong Chutney. This recipe was a twist on the traditional Indian Hariali kebab and received rave reviews (see recipe).

Indian cuisine like many is very diverse, with climate, location, agriculture, and centuries of trade influencing the food that has been produced. You will find restaurants that may have an influence from particular regions in India such as Pujab or Gujarat. 

 

Why Buy an Indian Restaurant in Australia?

 

  • Indian food is increasingly popular in Australia, known for its rich flavours, diversity, and variety of vegetarian and vegan options. The demand for authentic Indian cuisine is rising.
  • Australia's multicultural population includes a significant number of Indian immigrants, creating a steady customer base that appreciates and seeks out Indian food.
  •  Indian restaurants can cater to a niche market, offering unique dishes and dining experiences that are different from the common Western food options.
  • The Indian community in Australia is known for its strong networks and support for businesses within the community, which can help in initial business growth and stability.
  • Numerous cultural events and festivals can provide additional business opportunities for catering and partnerships.


When buying, you can always make adjustments to the menu, fit out and continue to grow and expand the business. Buying a business can give you a head start, rather than starting from scratch, as you are walking into an already established business with customers, menus, staff and marketing, allowing you to grow and improve on what is hopefully a sturdy foundation.
