Neelam Singh, an Agra native, had always imagined herself as a foodpreneur, even after obtaining her MBA and while working in corporate America.

Disappointed by the dearth of quality burger chains in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, she decided to venture into the male-dominated QSR industry with a two-pronged strategy of driving innovation and delivery in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, and in retrospect, to inspire more female entrepreneurs in the F&B Industry.
