CurriesOnline Ltd is the trading name of Curriesonline.co.uk - An Indian only, online "Food Aggregator", which allows it's 60,000+ unique visitors per month to search for their favourite Indian restaurants and place an order directly through the CurriesOnline portal.
The company was founded in 2007 by Shamin Hoque who raised the initial funds via family, friends and private investors. For the next 8 years Hoque built up the company, adding to his team substantially. To date the company turns over around £30,000 per week in takeaway orders from its numerous signed up "curry partners" (Indian restaurants)
The most significant change that the company has seen in recent months is the takeover from Kukd.com along with the sale of the company to [Hussain] of [Foods Group]
Hussain is now at the helm and has employed a team of [[1]], [[2]], and Digital Experts to grow the company in the same way he has with [[3]]. Already the team at Kukd.com have signed up a further 3000 restaurants and have now overtaken [Eat] in terms of the amount of signed up [[4]], in and around [[5]]
According to Hussain, the Takeaway and restaurant industry has been struggling now for too long with Food Aggregators who have become greedy with their commissions they charge in order to drive orders to individual eateries. The Kukd restaurant online ordering solution is different in it's ethos and management style. They say that eateries should fight to regain their independence from the larger Food aggregators, and generate custom via their own online ordering websites and apps. So, this is exactly what they offer. Along with these services comes a plethora of additional advice and help, on how best to market their restaurants and takeaways online. The Kukd [Marketing] team is headed up by [Griffiths] who implements his own "[Hat SEO] strategies to help gain rankings and traffic for all of the new Kukd Partners, therefore increasing takeaway orders and table reservations.
Curriesonline.co.uk will continue with it's own brand for the foreseeable future and currently there are no plans to merge the two brands into just one - Kukd.com. For the time being Hussain is stead fast on his mission to change the takeaway industry from within and secure a better deal for eatery owners for years to come.
