Curefoods

About Curefoods

What is Curefoods?
Curefoods is a Bengaluru-headquartered house of food brands, founded in 2020 by Ankit Nagori. It builds and scales multiple F&B brands — spanning healthy meals, biryani, pizza, desserts and celebration cakes — out of a shared network of cloud kitchens and dine-in stores across India.
How many brands does Curefoods own?
Curefoods' brand portfolio includes Eatfit, Sharief Bhai Biryani, Olio Pizza, Arambam, Nomad Pizza, CakeZone, Frozen Bottle and Krispy Kreme.
What is a 'house of brands' model, and why does Curefoods use it?
A house-of-brands model runs several distinct, independently-branded products from shared infrastructure — in Curefoods' case, shared cloud kitchens, supply chain and delivery operations. It lets one kitchen serve several occasions (health food, biryani, dessert) to the same customer without diluting any single brand's identity.
Who founded Curefoods and when?
Curefoods was founded in 2020 by Ankit Nagori, former co-founder of Cure.fit (Cult.fit) and former Chief Business Officer of Flipkart.
How can I order from Curefoods brands?
Every Curefoods brand is listed on major food delivery platforms (Swiggy, Zomato, Ownly) under its own name - search the brand name directly, e.g. 'Eatfit', 'Sharief Bhai' or 'Olio' - and select brands also operate from dine-in stores.
Does Curefoods have physical, dine-in stores or only delivery kitchens?
Both. Most Curefoods brands operate delivery-only cloud kitchens, but several brands - including Sharief Bhai, Frozen Bottle and Krispy Kreme also run dine-in and walk-in retail formats.
How do I apply for a job at Curefoods?
Open roles across all Curefoods brands are listed on the Careers page (curefoods.in/careers.html); applications can also be sent to careers@curefoods.in.
How can franchise or partnership enquiries reach Curefoods?
Franchise and partnership enquiries can be sent to hello@curefoods.in.
Are Curefoods' kitchens FSSAI-licensed and hygienic?
Yes. Every food business operating in India, including cloud kitchens listed on Swiggy or Zomato, is required to hold a valid FSSAI licence, and Curefoods' kitchens operate under that same regulatory requirement.
What should I do if my order from a Curefoods brand has a problem?
For orders placed through Swiggy, Zomato or Ownly, use that platform's order-help or refund flow first, since they process the payment and delivery. For orders placed directly with a brand (website or phone line), contact that brand's listed support channel, or reach Curefoods at hello@curefoods.in.
Can I track my order from a Curefoods brand in real time?
Orders placed via Swiggy or Zomato are tracked inside those apps. Brands with their own ordering channels, such as Sharief Bhai and Krispy Kreme India, offer tracking through their own app or website as well.
Eatfit

Questions about Eatfit

What makes Eatfit different from a regular food delivery brand?
Every Eatfit dish is nutrition-labelled with exact calories, protein, carbs and fat, designed with dietitians so customers can hit fitness goals without home-cooking.
Which cities is Eatfit available in?
Eatfit operates in Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Mysore, Pune, Mumbai, Delhi NCR and Chandigarh, with kitchens expanding as Curefoods opens new cloud-kitchen clusters.
Is Eatfit good for weight loss?
Eatfit portions and labels every meal with exact calories, protein, carbs and fat, which makes it easier to track intake toward a weight or fitness goal. As with any meal plan, results depend on overall diet and activity, not any single meal.
Does Eatfit have both vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals?
Yes — Eatfit's menu spans both, from grilled chicken and Peri Peri chicken rice bowls to paneer and quinoa khichdi options, all nutrition-labelled the same way.
Can I order Eatfit as a one-time meal or only as a subscription?
Eatfit meals can be ordered as a one-time meal through online platforms — Swiggy, Zomato and Ownly. We no longer offer subscription meals.
How do I report an issue with my Eatfit order?
You can report an order issue in the Eatfit app under Orders, by emailing hello@eatfit.in, or via Eatfit's WhatsApp support.
