Mealawe Secures USD 1 Million in Funding to Revolutionize Daily Food Delivery Across India

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], February 06: Mealawe, a pioneering food-tech company, has raised $1 million in funding from a mix of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), a network of Shark Tank founders, and angel investors associated with companies such as Goldman Sachs and Oracle. This funding will drive the company’s expansion into 14 cities over the next 10-12 months, with a target of delivering 1 million meals per month. Currently operational in Pune, Bangalore, Mumbai, and Kota, Mealawe is steadily building a nationwide presence.

Since its launch in October 2022 under Climbing Seeds Pvt Ltd, Mealawe has grown rapidly, delivering over 30,000 meals monthly. The new capital will be used to scale operations by expanding women-led kitchens, strengthening corporate cafeteria solutions, and deepening partnerships for organic ingredient sourcing. The company’s growth trajectory and expansion plans will be underscored with a focus on scaling operations and market expansion.

Founded by Rupesh Kumar, along with co-founders Pratap Haldar and Nikhil Jain, Mealawe began as a platform connecting home chefs with customers, providing nutritious, homemade-style meals. As it scales, Mealawe is integrating home chefs and women from the workforce into a structured kitchen model, creating economic opportunities while maintaining the essence of homemade food.

To ensure high-quality, nutritious meals, Mealawe directly sources organic kitchen essentials such as Bilona Ghee, Wood-Pressed Oils, and Organic Masalas by partnering with farmers, ensuring both better food quality and sustainable agricultural practices.

Beyond meal delivery, Mealawe has developed a corporate cafeteria management platform that allows businesses to provide high-quality meals without operational complexities. For smaller companies that lack physical cafeteria spaces, Mealawe offers a virtual cafeteria solution, ensuring seamless meal access for employees.

Rupesh Kumar, Founder of Mealawe, stated: “Our mission is to bridge the gap in daily food access for corporate employees, students, senior citizens, and more. By focusing on organic ingredients, women-led kitchen setups, and innovative corporate solutions, we are building a sustainable ecosystem that benefits both customers and home chefs.”

With a technology-driven approach, a focus on sustainability, and a commitment to redefining daily food solutions, Mealawe is emerging as a leader in India’s fast-growing food-tech sector. By making healthy, homemade food accessible at scale, the company is poised to transform how millions of Indians eat every day.

Sunita Lad Bhamray’s “Kalee and the Mysterious Twins: Keepers of the Big Secret” Set for Reprint

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 06: Popular children’s author Sunita Lad Bhamray celebrates the success of her latest children’s book Kalee and the Mysterious Twins: Keepers of the Big Secret, with a coveted re-print following an overwhelming response from readers. The book has not only sparked conversations about one of today’s most pressing issues—environmental conservation—but has also captivated young readers while fostering a love for reading, much to the delight of parents and teachers. With its engaging plot and immersive storytelling, it inspires friendship, love for nature, and a sense of responsibility for its conservation. With students, educators, and environmentalists enthusiastically embracing the book, the first edition has completely sold out, paving the way for a much-anticipated re-print of copies that are set to hit the stands soon.

Sunita Lad Bhamray, an Indian-origin Singapore-based author, playwright, and screenwriter, has built an illustrious career rooted in the transformative power of storytelling. With a portfolio of five books across various genres, her work consistently aims to inspire change and spark meaningful dialogue. Her latest book, Kalee and the mysterious twins, has also gained fame and found a place in every child’s home and heart. The book, which was launched in June last year, has sold close to a thousand copies in the past eight months. It traces the struggles of a young female protagonist who takes on the role of an environmental warrior, and has garnered quite a following. It captivates young minds as it follows Kalee and the two enigmatic twins who accompany her on an adventure to save the planet.

Speaking about the success of the book and motivation for writing for children, Sunita Lad Bhamray said, “The enthusiasm from young readers for Kalee and the Mysterious Twins has been truly heartwarming. The book has resonated with students as it combines environmental stewardship with important values like teamwork and responsibility. In an era when screen time is replacing reading habits, it’s encouraging to see children engage with a book and revel in the joy of storytelling. I believe that a well-told story has the power to transport young minds, nurture their imagination, and instil values that stay with them for life. I’m grateful that this book is not only sparking curiosity but also inspiring children to think about real-world solutions to environmental challenges. As they journey with Kalee and the Twins, I hope they also develop a fondness for books—a habit that will enrich them well into adulthood.”

Deeply committed to engaging with young readers, parents, and teachers, Sunita has been invited to schools across the country to conduct reading workshops and discussions with children aged 7-14, fostering environmental consciousness, ethical living, and eco-conscious leadership. These sessions have proven to be an effective way to engage pre-teens—her book’s primary readership—on pressing environmental issues. With the upcoming copies of Kalee and the Mysterious Twins, she plans to expand these workshops to Pune, Mumbai, and Delhi, using storytelling as a powerful tool to nurture a love for reading.

Her efforts in engaging students though storytelling and finding joy in the written word, has also been welcomed by parents and teachers alike. In an era when digital distractions are reducing book readership, Sunita’s sessions have successfully drawn in students who previously showed little interest in books, encouraging them not only to read but also to think critically about social and environmental issues. For schools, this also helps align with the Government of India’s Read India campaign, launched under the National Mission for Education through Information and Communication Technology (MHRD), which promotes reading as a lifelong habit and encourages teachers to engage students in a year long reading practice, outside of the ongoing curriculum. By blending fantasy with real-world themes, Kalee and the Mysterious Twins is not just a story—it is a catalyst for young minds to imagine, question, and contribute to a better future.

The re-printed copies of Kalee and the Mysterious Twins: Keepers of the Big Secret will be available for purchase through major retailers and on Amazon
