"One of the most enlightening experiences, I got to learn a lot about the start-up world, processes and network with some great minds. We at Speed Kitchen are aiming to become the leading cloud kitchen infrastructure in the Indian market, the first step of which is to expand to over 20 locations and cross more than 200 operational kitchens by the end of FY 23-24," said Paurav Rastogi, founder, Speed Kitchen.
