Nestlé India’s out-of-home (OOH) division, Nestlé Professional, has expanded its Retail ONE kiosk network to 1,000 units across the country. This initiative is part of Nestlé’s strategy to develop alternate consumption formats and meet the growing demand for quick, accessible food and beverage options in public spaces.

The Retail ONE network includes branded formats such as Nescafé Corners, Maggi Hotspots, and KitKat Break Zones, typically located in high-footfall areas like educational institutions, healthcare centres, and tourist destinations. Nestlé said its OOH business has been registering double-digit growth within the category, and India remains its second-largest market in the Asia, Oceania and Africa zone. “We are proud that this growth fuels meaningful livelihoods and diversity across India’s food service ecosystem,” said Saurabh Makhija, Head of Nestlé Professional. The current network employs 308 operators and 1,586 food handlers.

Looking ahead, the FMCG major plans to scale up further, leveraging rising urban demand. Nestlé has also partnered with F&B brands like Social and Chai Point to serve Maggi, and collaborated with Mad Over Donuts to introduce KitKat-inspired doughnuts and shakes.
