The product pipeline also includes innovative offerings like a protein chocolate bar, a healthier spin on traditional chocolates, and protein infused cold coffee, or “Proffee.” Nuvie says it has expanded its footprint and is now available in more than 100 premium retail stores across major metros like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Chennai.
