MUMBAI: India’s QSR scene just got an upgrade. The fast-rising homegrown player in India’s quick service restaurant market, Lenexis Foodworks has brought in seasoned tech boss Milind Yashwant Mhatre to run point on its IT game plan. Appointed as business head of IT, Mhatre joins at a time when the company is cooking up serious expansion plans across metros and emerging cities.

With over 19 years of experience in IT ops, Mhatre knows his way around everything from SAP S/4HANA rollouts to ERP and POS system overhauls. He’s handled both in-house tech and outsourced projects, led large teams, and built the kind of resilient infrastructure you want behind a growing food chain with national ambition.

This appointment isn’t just about tech—it’s about scale, speed, and smarts.

"We are at a pivotal stage of growth and our ability to scale responsibly depends on the strength of our leadership. Milind brings a blend of domain expertise, strategic thinking, and executional agility that aligns perfectly with our ambitions. We are building not just a QSR company, but a high-impact organisation driven by talent and purpose,” said Lenexis Foodworks founder & director Aayush Madhusudan Agrawal.

Mhatre will also oversee technology operations at Inspira Global, bolstering the digital backbone of the Lenexis ecosystem. His entry reflects the company’s deeper push into operational efficiency and customer-centric innovation, with tech as the enabler.

As Lenexis moves into its next phase, it isn’t just flipping burgers—it’s flipping the script on what modern Indian QSRs can achieve with the right tech leadership.
