Ships and offshore crews, remote sites and work camps, and expeditions, treks and pilgrimage groups. People are already being fed in every one of these places. We help you feed them something good, wherever a kitchen is not an option.
The meals keep in a dry store for 12 months, take no freezer space, and give a vegetarian crew member a hot Indian meal with just a kettle.
A set portion in every pouch, the same meal every time, and no cook needed for the vegetarian option. Open only what you serve; the rest stays sealed.
Rigs, mines, camps and project sites. No cold chain from port to plate, each person prepares their own meal with boiling water, and a 12-month shelf that survives the supply route.
Ten proper meals, breakfast to dessert, that lift morale where good food is hard to get.
Light to carry, and a flask of boiling water is all the kitchen a group needs. A real, varied menu instead of the same dry rations, so people eat well and feel looked after.
In these channels the decision is operational, and the numbers are yours, not ours: cost per served meal versus cooked, labour hours removed, wastage eliminated, cold-chain cost avoided, and consistent quality batch to batch.
So we get out of the way and let the product prove it: a sample anyone on your team can prepare with no training, and a quote by volume once you have run your own costs.
| The decision | What we remove |
|---|---|
| Cost per served meal | Waste, over-prep, storage |
| Labour | Skilled cooks, chopping, training |
| Cold chain | Fridge, freezer, spoilage |
| Consistency | Chef variability, batch drift |
| Shelf life | Short-dated stock, write-offs |
We are not here to beat home cooking. We are here to beat the options a busy operation actually reaches for.
| Naanke | Cook in-house | Frozen / retort | Outsourced catering | Dry rations & instant food | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost per served meal | Predictable, low fully-loaded | Labour, waste and storage stack up | Low unit, needs freezer and reheat | Their margin sits on top | Low unit cost, rarely a full meal |
| Consistency | Consistent, batch to batch | Varies by cook and by day | Consistent, softer texture | Depends on their kitchen | Consistent, but the same few items |
| Skilled labour | None, hot water and ten minutes | A trained cook on shift | Reheat staff | Theirs, not yours | None |
| Waste risk | Make one at a time, near zero | Over-prep and spoilage | Freezer burn, thaw loss | Their cost, your price | Low |
| Cold chain | None, 12-month ambient | Fridge and freezer | Frozen chain required | Chilled delivery | None |
| Kitchen needed | A kettle | A full kitchen | Freezer plus microwave or oven | None on site | A kettle, or none |
| Available on demand | Always in the cupboard | Only if staffed | If stocked and thawed | On their schedule | Always in the store |

We are not competing with a good cook. We are competing with what an operation actually does when it cannot staff one.
I had the paneer last night. The taste is definitely there, and I sense you have a winner on your hands. It is a meal on the go, and I think you are on to something.
I tried two of the four samples you sent and they were delicious. To my surprise, they did not taste like rehydrated food at all. I should probably order your whole menu. I want more.
The meals came in really handy on our trip, especially one night when we were in a clutch. Amazing product. Keep developing, keep pushing.
