GloriaFood
Our one-line pitch is…
We’re creating an online ordering system for restaurants that offer food delivery or pickup, using the freemium business model.
Introduce your team, and tell us one interesting thing about each member. We are…
Oliver is the founder and CEO. He is a fan of electronic music and originally came to Romania, planning to stay for six weeks. That was nine years ago.
Adelina is the marketing executive, office cookie provider and story lover.
Liviu is our full-stack web engineer; a natural-born geek 🙂
Tudor is our full-stack mobile engineer; running computers and marathons like a champ.
This photo was taken while shooting a creative but low-budget explanation video, Photo credit: GloriaFood We received our initial capital through…
Own investment.
The real pain about starting a business in Romania is…
The small market size. For an Internet company, however, Bucharest is a great place with access to highly skilled people with great English skills.
The person that inspires us is…
Jeff Bezos – with Amazon he created a company that is focused on great customer experience.
The one app/service that we couldn’t live without is…
Gmail, WhatsApp, Google Maps, Clever Taxi, and of course, soon to emerge GloriaFood 🙂
The one thing we would save from our burning office is…
Our laptops and our “Sir-Talk-A-Lot” award we received for the best pitch at the TechHub Bucharest demo day.
“If you are not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late.” Although this philosophy helps a lot to focus on the important things we believe aesthetics do matter. This is why we follow the philosophy of the MDP (Minimum Delightful Product).
The one thing that will make us quit is…
If after a lot of hard work the cost of customer acquisition still proves to be much higher than our revenue and we have tried all alternatives.
Our inside joke is…
“Don’t worry, you can’t crash it!” – A quote from our developers.
You might not believe it, but we…
Put some change in the “beer box” every day. We’re really looking forward until it’s full again so we can go out and have our next team event.
We’ll call ourselves successful when…
The web systems are crashing due high ordering volume (and we can handle a lot of load).
The startup we really want to see on inventures’ Startup Pick is…
Anyone from our amazing startup community at TechHub Bucharest.
