MUMBAI: The food ordering app, Tinyowl has launched Tinyowl Homemade in Bengaluru. The company is expanding this platform in Bengaluru after the good response in Mumbai.

Tinyowl Homemade has attracted over 500 orders a day across the three localities of Powai, Andheri and Bandra in Mumbai.

Tinyowl co-founder & CEO Harshvardhan Mandad said, “We have seen immense growth in this segment. Tinyowl Homemade will be able to provide more options to our consumers and other stakeholders in the food eco-system. We aim to take Tinyowl Homemade to other cities as well in the near future.”

“We also believe that today’s chef is tomorrow’s restaurant and there is huge dormant talent and opportunity lying with the housewives of today. Tinyowl Homemade is the right opportunity for empowering such talented homemakers,” Mandad added. 

Tinyowl Homemade did a pilot project at Bangalore in August with three cuisine options and one dessert option. The responses within the first month have been extremely encouraging for the company. 

Tinyowl Homemade currently offers only lunch in Bengaluru and is live in BTM, Koramangla, HSR, and Indira Nagar. Homemade works with 150 chefs in Mumbai and 15 in Bengaluru will gradually increase to over 100 in the next few months. 

The app lists 30 – 40 dishes a day, 74 per cent being vegetarian. The home-chefs are charged a commission of 15 – 30 per cent of dish value, average order value being Rs 250.

The company was launched in 2014 by five IITians.
