Instameal Solutions aims to bring Information technology (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) into the procurement, supply chain, food safety, and sourcing processes. This fast-paced world, rushing into tasks one after other, leaves people no time to cook and be at the mercy of unreliable tiffin services. Understanding that no amount of junk food can ever beat the comfort of homemade food, we offer Instameal Kits that include all of the ingredients, where some preparation or cooking is required through a process that is given on the package. The convenience that we offer to our customers through “Easy to Cook” foods is the saving of time and effort in the kitchen. Instameal kits inherently solve a problem in any hungry busy person’s life- lack of time to shop and decide what and how to cook. But Instameal takes it a step further by doing all of the preparation work for our valid customers by delivering peeled vegetables, minimal-to-no chopping, marinated poultry/fish/meat with standardized Instameal masalas, and a process that goes from pan to plate in a matter of minutes. This in turn reduces the cooking time and wastage of raw materials. We also include specialty menu options for people who are gluten-free, dairy-free, low-carb and emphasize kid-friendly options for families.
