The Business of Hospitality ft. Yash Bhanage & Sameer Seth, Co Founders- Hunger.Inc

This Round Is On Me with Gauri Devidayal

The hospitality industry was badly hit by the pandemic. With most of the staff leaving for their respective hometowns owing to the lockdown, and a responsibility to those staying back, combined with low business; restauranteurs like our host Gauri, and our guests- Yash & Sameer had a big challenge in front of them. From opening up deliveries to setting up cloud kitchens, and at the same time being accountable to both staff & consumers- they have lived through it to tell the tale.

This round, Gauri is joined by Yash Bhanage & Sameer Seth, cofounders of Hunger.Inc- the company behind 'The Bombay Canteen', 'The Bombay Sweet Shop', & 'O Pedro'. They talk about managing the business in the pandemic, experimenting with different cuisines, the future of the industry post unlock, bulletproofing against other such incidents, coping with the loss of friends and family, the flip side of aggregator apps, and Veganism.

If you are a budding/established restauranteur, this one's surely a masterclass on building an organization that can sustain most challenges.
