Curefoods has adopted a unique approach by operating multiple brands, including The Better Bites, EatFit, and Oh So Stoned, among others. This diversification strategy allows the company to cater to diverse consumer preferences and expand its market reach. By having a portfolio of brands, Curefoods can mitigate risks associated with a single brand's performance and capitalize on emerging trends in the food-tech industry.

Business Performance

As of FY 2022-2023, Curefoods has reported Rs 1,200 crore in revenue, with a growth rate of 200% year-over-year. The company has established a strong presence in the Indian market, with a network of over 1,000 outlets across the country. Curefoods' focus on building multiple brands has enabled the company to tap into various segments, including quick service restaurants (QSRs) and cloud kitchen models.
