Core assemblies are designed as replaceable modules, reducing downtime during service and allowing capacity or menu expansion without full machine replacement.

Business models

Own, finance, or partner with us

We prioritize direct machine sales, but we also offer flexible models for strategic sites and rollout partners.

Model 01

Buy Outright

You purchase the FC-01 machine and retain full upside. We support installation, training, service plans, and consumable supply.

Machine cost: ~INR 8 lakhs

Franchise cost: ~INR 1.5 lakhs

Model 02

Finance / Lease

Acquire FC-01 via periodic payments to reduce upfront capex while scaling across multiple locations.

Maintenance packages are structured case by case.

Model 03

Profit Share Partnership

For select sites, we can partner where FreshCharge handles operations and maintenance, and gross profit is shared.

We still prioritize direct machine sales as the primary model.

Profit-share math

Gross Profit = Revenue − Raw Material Cost − Direct Fees & Taxes. The split is mutually agreed at onboarding based on location and demand profile.

Compliance and supply terms

If you brand and operate as FreshCharge, frozen fruit input and proprietary cups are supplied by us. If you operate with your own branding, you must hold your own FSSAI license. In all cases, cup procurement is through FreshCharge to maintain machine compatibility and quality standards.
