Healthcare platform CureFit has acquired Bengaluru-based premium online food delivery startup Kristys Kitchen in a cash and equity deal, the company said in a statement.
Kristys Kitchen is a full-stack online food delivery company, which delivers premium authentic international and healthy food in Bengaluru, and uses eco-friendly packaging solutions. It also collaborates with foreign chefs to create authentic recipes.
The company was launched in September 2016 by Cristina Maiorescu, Sumit Sinha and Cedric Carvalho. Previously, the co-founders had travelled extensively to explore food cultures and cooking methods to set up their first kitchen in Bengaluru.
Maiorescu and Carvalho, along with all the other employees at Kristys Kitchen will join CureFit’s team as part of the acquisition.
“We believe we have developed a great product that will now be taken to scale with the help of CureFit. Both companies’ values and long-term vision are in sync,” said Maiorescu on the acquisition.
Kristys Kitchen claims to have delivered 250 orders per day from its Marathahalli kitchen and is operationally cash positive.
Curefit, run by Curefit Healthcare Pvt. Ltd, was registered in May 2016 and is to be launched in early 2017 by former Flipkart executives Ankit Nagori and Mukesh Bansal.
