When it comes to recession-proof industries, food tops the list — and milk is one of its most essential staples. From morning tea to a child’s daily nutrition, milk is a non-negotiable part of life. That’s why Amul, India’s iconic dairy brand, continues to thrive year-round, with outlets bustling across cities and towns. (File Photo)

Amul offers everyday entrepreneurs the chance to open retail outlets and sell its wide range of dairy products. These stores operate on a commission-based model, meaning the more you sell, the more you earn. With consistent demand for milk, butter, cheese, and ice cream, monthly earnings can be substantial — especially in high-footfall areas. (File Photo)
Amul provides two franchise formats: Amul Outlet/Railway Parlour/Kiosk and Amul Ice Cream Scooping Parlour. Each format has its own setup requirements, including brand security, equipment, and renovation costs. (File Photo)
Amul Outlet, Amul Railway Parlour, and Amul Kiosk — they require a shop space of about 100-150 square feet and an investment of approximately ₹2 lakh. This amount covers brand security, renovation, and equipment costs. These outlets typically sell everyday dairy products like milk, butter, paneer, and curd. (File Photo)
The second option is the Amul Ice Cream Scooping Parlour, which requires a larger space of at least 300 square feet and a higher investment of around ₹6 lakh. These parlours focus on serving ice cream scoops, sundaes, shakes, and other dessert-based items. (File Photo)
Amul offers commissions ranging from 2.5% to 10% depending on the product category. Ice cream parlours may earn up to 50% margin on recipe-based items like sundaes and shakes. With a prime location, monthly sales can easily cross Rs 1-2 lakh, translating into a healthy income. (File Photo)
