  • Lastly, the startups will be taught how to leverage networks & synergies, to take their final flight in the market


 
Gokul Kandhi, Chief Business Officer, Curefoods said, “The first season of the accelerator program gave us a good bunch of exciting brands and entrepreneurs to work with. This season will be a bigger and better round held for young brands, to give them a great opportunity to leverage our Research & Development, Distribution and Central operation strengths across all top cities of the country. I look forward to the Season 2 of the programme.”
 
The Curefoods Product Market Fit (PMF) criteria are defined depending on 3 aspects. The startup should be generating an annual revenue of INR 1.5 to 3 Crores. The amount of love the startup gets from its customers and the demand it is generating will also be evaluated. Lastly, the unit economics and operational efficiency of the company will also be considered. Companies having low last mile efforts and leak-proof logistics will be preferred over the others.
 
Once the company is part of the accelerator programme, the 10-day process to garner funding entails a complete audit of the company’s last 18 months’ P&L. There will also be a clean reconciliation of the revenue that was reported, invoiced, and collected. A detailed breakdown of the cost of goods sold (COGS) and the evaluation of the company’s operational complexity and its scale potential will be examined. With this overall company check. Lastly, based on the company’s future plans for the next 18 months, the required funds will be scaled.
