Petoo, 31 Franchisees, Est'd in 2015, Bengaluru HQ
- 20000+ Page Views
- 10000+ Investor Views
Petoo - For Those Who Want To Be A Food Entrepreneur With A Mission To Make "Indian Cuisine" The Most Loved Food Globally.
Petoo is about great food and great stories that are built around it.
It is the vision of foodies, whose love for food and years of working in the online food ordering marketplace, saw the need to bring Indian food closer to people.
Petoo was launched because we are foodies (read gluttons!) and love Indian food, sugar and spice and everything nice.
We've grown in a country that spells variety when it comes to Indian cuisine. But, while there are a number of mom and pop restaurants that provide Indian cuisine at large, there is a lack of a big brand such as a Mc Donalds that can serve daal chawal or popular Indian cuisines.
In office meetings, pizza is the popular choice. Why? Good question. Before you Google and arrive at various answers.
We'll tell you, it's simply because pizza unlike biryani, is less messy to eat, is well packaged, and the boxes can not only be carried around easily, but disposed off easily as well. Now what if you could order great Indian food for team meetings, and enjoy the same experience as eating the pizza - without the mess; the crappy packaging, and the guilt of making your environment a dump yard?
That's where Petoo comes in - We make sure Indian food is accessible, convenient to eat in neatly packed boxes, and is the popular choice, anytime you are hungry. Because it's about more than just having amazing food - Petoo is about delivering an amazing experience.
But a bad service can ruin everything we just said. So our technology is coupled with innovation, and is at the very heart of the eating experience. With abilities like controlling inventory and predicting orders, we make sure your great food is delivered in the most efficient way.
So whether you are at home watching a nail biting cricket match, or in office, you can track your order once it is placed- with timely and accurate updates on how soon your food will reach you. And every time you finish a Petoo box, you're only going to say, "Damn, that was fast! And totally tasty too!"
That's what we are here for - for the love of food. We want to provide you with great Indian food every time you order. Your only job is to relax and enjoy every bite.
And if you want to join us in our mission to make Indian cuisine - the world's most loved cuisine - while having the fun of running your own food franchisee, we would love to talk to you.
We would love to help you setup your own Petoo takeaway and dine in outlet. And we will extend all the help to make you feel comfortable running this business even if you are first time entrepreneur.
