Affluent Indians Increasingly Purchase Premium Imported and Domestic Coffee Machines

Affluent and well-travelled Indians are increasingly investing in premium artisanal coffee machines, spending lakhs of rupees to recreate the café experience from cities like Paris and Prague at home. An estimated 20,000 imported units are sold annually, alongside significant sales of domestic brands like Wonderchef. This trend reflects a growing coffee culture fueled by neighbourhood cafes and a desire for both quality coffee and stylish kitchen pieces, with sales rising rapidly over the past six years.
