A new web based startup in Ahmedabad is helping homemakers sell their home cooked in real time.
Cook'Din, a platform created by three former colleagues, claims to be a new way for the people who cook at home to earn some extra cash.
"What we realized is that housewives cook for their families so might as well start using their culinary skills to earn some money out of it,'' explains co-founder of the firm, Abhijeet Goswami.
The interested sellers only have to register themselves on the website Cook'Din providing details of the cuisine they want to sell and the ingredients.
"The rest will be taken care of by us. Right from packaging material for cooked food to delivering it and also marketing of the cuisine by rating it on our website. The housewives just have to focus on the preparation,'' said Mr Goswami.
The concept seems to be drawing good response. In just a few days of the website being launched, about 50 housewives have registered and many patrons are putting in their food requests.
One of the early sellers to register, Swati, a homemaker, says, "In Ahmedabad, we have realized that even sub-standard street food is sold at a price which at times is not affordable and not tasty.
Through this concept we can provide home cooked food to the people who don't have the option to get it otherwise."
