Three O'Clock signs India deal with FranGlobal, targeting four South Asian markets

Three O'Clock, the Ho Chi Minh City 24-hour café chain founded in 2016, entered the Indian market in early 2026 through a strategic partnership with FranGlobal, the international arm of Franchise India.

As master franchise partner, FranGlobal plans to open 100 outlets across four South Asian markets — India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh — in the coming years. The brand launched in India with the simultaneous opening of its first stores in Gurugram, and separately opened a location in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, extending its Indonesian presence. Three O'Clock now operates a growing network across Vietnam alongside its active international franchises in India and Indonesia.

The brand's proposition — round-the-clock service, a menu blending traditional Vietnamese flavors with modern innovations, and, in the company's own framing, compelling unit economics — is the kind of differentiated, well-documented concept that travels well under a master franchise structure. It is a textbook example of the outbound Vietnamese franchising lane Go Global has long anticipated.
