Just when you thought Licious was the only meaty game in town, comes another meat delivery startup.
Meatigo was born out of Founder Siddhant Wangdi’s quest for quality meat in India. After a four-year stint at Tata Administrative Services (TAS) that took him to Thailand, Singapore, and other countries, Siddhant was exposed to quality meat products. When he returned to India in 2016, he was “horrified” to see the lack of hygiene and safety standards in the way meat was procured, stored, and sold in the country.
Siddhant tells
