Ankush is a professional that has a knack for running businesses. He worked to set up the rib room restaurant at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray and then worked hard to establish it as one of the best restaurants in Dubai within a short span. He is extremely personable and very business savvy. Ankush showed an entrepreneurial spirit in every venture and at a young age wanted to set up his own business and decided to leave a promising career in hotels to pursue his dream of running his own business, Ankush learned the job the hard way and quickly set up his own businesses and worked hard to make a success of them. I am certain that he will make a name for himself in the world of business within a short period of time. I can highly recommend Ankush to anyone that require his expertise and you are inheriting a brilliant young man that will make a success in anything that he will set his mind to do.

Ankush is a kind of manager who will show how to overcome daily challengea and achieve excellence during tough times in Dubai.I’ve worked with him as senior manager during my time at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray in. He has a unique ability to organize the working process in a way that lets employees demonstrate the full extent of their professional skills. A wonderful sense of humor in combination with deep empathy enabled him to lift anyone spirits in exceptionally stressful situations. As a raising leader Ankuah is a professional I strongly recommend working with him in furture projects.

      (Acquihired by curefoods) The shifting trends towards dine-in orders and a move away from cooking have unlocked a massive business opportunity for restaurants to serve a completely new consumer segment, complementing restaurant’s existing retail operations. Thus to allow restaurants effectively and efficiently serve such customers and taper this high potential business opportunity, We came up with KitchenXS . India’s first managed cloud kitchen platform that incubates & assists restaurants/brands scale their off-premise food business by increasing restaurants’ off-premise food availability across different locations via offering kitchen operations as a service through our cloud kitchens. We establish a deep operational partnership with multiple restaurants/food joint players & assist them across the entire value chain by offering holistic services such as Industrial kitchen space, raw material procurement, warehousing & inventory management, order processing, cooking, packaging, logistics and customer management, etc. Multiple such partner brands are operated from a single kitchen, thus allowing us to leverage the efficiencies of shared resources and better kitchen utilisation We eventually plan to create a platform of brands, which will be operated across our network of shared kitchens as per the demographic needs of that region. This will allow us to navigate the scalability challenges associated with demographic/geographic preference and the high cost of food innovation & marketing incurred by current players.
