A Belfast based startup, Nombox Ltd is looking to be the bridge between hungry diners looking for healthy eating options & home based cooks. The startup is looking to create a new category by organising the home based cooks together.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Currently in its pilot phase, the startup is onboarding Homecooks in Belfast & Cardiff areas while  developing the technology to further expand in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nombox Ltd platform will allow customers to explore & buy home cooked food from local chefs in their neighborhood. The chef\u2019s are onboarded after a rigorous process to ensure they have the necessary license & hygiene rating to operate & sell home cooked meals. Nombox Ltd  can also assist passionate homecooks to obtain these required licenses to operate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe idea was born out of frustration to find pocket friendly healthy meals. Me & my wife are both working professionals & end up having takeaways most of the time. We then found a few homecooks in our area which looked like a healthier & pocket-friendly solution to the dilemma of most people like myself who don\u2019t have the time to cook\u201d, says Ninil, one of the founders of Nombox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Nombox looking to organise the homecook playfield, the food & beverage industry has a new entrant that is sure to create a niche in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The food delivery market is rapidly increasing worldwide and 2020 has seen the segment expand further. Nombox provides the platform for these homecooks to reach new customers and make a successful living. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

40% of UK citizens follow a healthy and balanced diet and 1 in four are so overworked they don\u2019t have time to cook. With takeaway or fast food joints the only option currently, a healthy & pocket friendly alternate will have good takers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are super excited to pilot our idea in Belfast & hoping to get enough support & resources from the startup ecosystem here to give us a headstart when we launch in the major cities in the UK\u201d, says Ninil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
