5 Interesting Food Startups Started By IIT-Grads


#4.FRSH

Badal Goel, a mechanical engineer from IIT Delhi, received strong support from his friend Gaurav Lal, an alumnus of IIT Delhi and IIM Calcutta to start FRSH, a food and beverage company which serves fresh salads, sandwiches, and juices to  corporate offices.

“For logistic efficiency and economies of scale all orders for a location are delivered at convenient fixed time slots. For example, to enjoy a freshly squeezed orange juice with a tasty sprout salad while you go through morning emails, you can place an order from your smartphone in 30 seconds while commuting to office,” said Badal.

Currently, FRSH is serving to the corporate offices in Gurgaon, and soon they will be serving to schools, colleges, metro stations, health centers, and apartment complexes. The company has so far invested in almost 50 lakh in setting up a centralized kitchen, besides technology and manpower.

#5. Sattviko

Gupta, an IIT Roorkee graduate, launched a new eating concept in Delhi that caters to more than 300 people daily. Sattviko is inspired from the Vedas, where a diet was followed with a belief to lead self-control mind,  uplift the spirit, and keep the body healthy. They specialize in Mexican, Italian, and American cuisines with no onions or garlic, as per the rules.

The Sattviko outlets in Delhi generate good business daily and the company is planning for an overseas expansion in the coming months.
