This startup has won numerous awards both domestically and internationally, and they will represent Indonesia in the Pitching Project competition which will be held in Turkey in March tomorrow.
Gifood is a startup that distributes food surplus people with those who still lack food. This startup comes from the experience of its founder, Fathin Naufal, when he was a student, where he saw many events held by students producing leftover food that was still suitable for consumption, therefore it was thought to create a connecting platform between the giver and the recipient of food. Gifood is also an alumni of the formation of the Creative Hub Fisipol batch 1.
