Guwahati, Assam — Vayunex Technologies, led by Co-Founders Manish Giri, Dilabar Hussain, Deepika Gnawali & Anisha Dutta has made a strategic investment in Moms Meal Box lead by Purusottam Upadhaya, a purpose-driven kitchen outlet in Guwahati’s Uzzan Bazar. This collaboration aims to make daily nutritious meals affordable and accessible to all, especially those who struggle to afford a proper plate of food.

While many food delivery services charge high prices, Moms Meal Box is changing the narrative by offering wholesome meals at just ₹59 each — a price point lower than many beverages and snacks. This bold pricing isn’t just a business decision; it stems from lived experience.

From Hunger to Purpose: Manish’s Story

For Manish, the idea behind Moms Meal Box is deeply personal.

During his college days, he often went without a meal — not by choice, but because he simply couldn’t afford one. Many students skip food to save money, but for him, hunger became an ongoing struggle that affected his focus, health, and confidence.

That experience ignited something powerful — a purpose beyond profit. He wanted to build not just a business, but a way to help others who face the same pain of hunger that he once knew.

“I didn’t want anyone to go hungry because food was too expensive. A simple meal can change someone’s day — or even their life.” — Manish Giri
