POD Inspiration

Anurag Aggarwal - Founder of POD

Following his experience in MasterChef UK 2023, which culminated with him as one of the three finalist’s, Anurag Aggarwal found his passion for food and decided to stay within the culinary world and started Anuragfoodstory. This was developed to share his passion and love for food through guest chef events and motivational speaking.

Now to reach more people, Anurag brings these flavours, aromas, and experiences to a wider market through POD By AnuragFoodStory, offering fresh and delicious Indian cuisine inspired meals for organisations and communities.  They are full of exotic flavours, goodness and curated with lots of love and passion. 

Based in South Essex, community growth and sustainability are at the heart of our business. The concept of POD is inspired by the exotic spice cardamom; the green pods are synonymous with soothing aromas, premium quality and have an element of mystery in its clustered aromatic seeds.

What’s in your POD?

Flavour

As you take your first mouthful, experience the different exotic flavours, textures, and aromas.  The noise in your mind will fade away, your body will be nourished, and your senses feel content. POD is a beautiful symphony, where each ingredient is like a musical instrument, perfectly in sync and creating magic.

Goodness

We are what we eat, therefore the quality, freshness and nutrition of what we eat is integral to us, nourishing ourselves to the best of our ability.  POD delivers goodness you can taste, and we are committed to source, produce, and supply local businesses.

Love

Food is much more than just a means of sustenance; it is an essential part of our well-being as it nourishes our body and mind. It brings people together and especially in today’s fast-paced life where everyone is running, it is important to pause. POD provides the opportunity to connect with ourselves. We all deserve to have a tasty, healthy and hot meal!

Freshly cooked chilled meals are supplied in individual portion recyclable containers and ready to be consumed in minutes after heating up in an oven or microwave. We can deliver between 25 and 2,500 units on a daily/weekly basis as we understand our customers have different needs.

This is an opportunity for organisations and communities to do something nice for their teams, employees or residents. Based on the demographics and operations model, you have the flexibility to provide this as a free benefit, subsidy or charge.

This promotes overall well-being, as individuals can relax in their lunch break, enjoy fresh and delicious POD, rather than driving to a superstore or eating cold sandwiches. All you need is a small fridge to store, and an oven/microwave to heat, we will take care of the rest.

In today’s demanding lifestyle, we all deserve a tasty, healthy and hot meal!
