Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

The everything store for restaurants in LATAM

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a B2B platform that lets restaurants in Latin America buy all their supplies - from fresh produce to kitchen essentials - directly from producers. We cut out middlemen, handle logistics, and offer a single place to order everything they need to run their business.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in São Paulo, Brazil, and after YC the company would remain based here. This is the center of our supply chain and our main market.

Explain your decision regarding location.

São Paulo is the largest restaurant market in LATAM and the logistics hub for our suppliers. Being here lets us stay close to customers and partners and understand the local challenges firsthand.
