Faaso's

Faaso's (Fanatic Activism Against Substandard Occidental Shit) is an Indian fast food chain that primarily sells wraps.

History
Co-founder Jaydeep Barman thought of the idea for Faaso's based on the Kati rolls he had seen in his hometown of Kolkata, West Bengal. Barman says, "I was fascinated by the concept of rolls. It’s a bit like a pizza, except that it’s not flat. And it is so versatile. You can wrap anything under the sun".

Barman graduated from IIM Lucknow in 1999 and moved to Pune, Maharashtra to work for Brainvisa Technologies. In Pune, Barman met Kallol Banerjee who was also an alumnus of IIM Lucknow. Barman and Banerjee founded Faaso’s as a part-time business in 2004. Another IIM Lucknow alumnus and an old friend of Barman’s, Anand Lunia, provided them with an initial investment of inr 800000. Two more friends of the co-founders, Siddharth Joshi and Biswanath Chakraborty, were put in charge of the day-to-day operations.

Locations
As of July 2013, Faaso's operates 52 outlets in 3 cities of India - Pune, Mumbai and Bangalore.
