Founded in 2016 out of a Delhi apartment, Sleepy Owl has grown into a notable player in India’s third-wave coffee movement. The company offers a portfolio of more than 30 products, including signature cold brew packs, instant coffee, ground coffee and ready-to-drink cans. Its products are sold through a strong D2C presence on Amazon and its own website, and are also available in over 7,500 stores across more than 15 Indian cities. Financially, Sleepy Owl doubled revenue to ₹44.4 crore in FY25 from ₹22.2 crore in FY24 while narrowing losses to ₹2.1 crore from ₹11 crore the prior year. Unit economics improved materially: the company spent ₹1.08 for every ₹1 earned in FY25 versus ₹1.71 in FY24. Sleepy Owl competes in a crowded premium coffee market alongside brands such as Blue Tokai, Rage Coffee, Subko and abCoffee.
