"The important thing is to never stop questioning."
I recently graduated from my Master's program in chemical engineering at Stanford University, where I explored my interests in renewable energy technologies and sustainability across multiple disciplines, including materials, finance, design, and policy. I love reading and writing about new ideas and thoughts in the field, and always look forward to opportunities to put my know-how to good use on projects. Please reach out if you have ideas for collaboration!

Hey Korn - thanks for the comments! Your questions were really helpful as I prepare the BM canvas (https://canvanizer.com/canvas/rOHog7Jl3cIf9). Here are the clarifications which I hope is clearly stated in the business model - please let me know if it isn't to you!
1. As a delivery service, we would accept orders both from individual employees and companies (the latter more for daily catering options or for meetings), and works like a regular delivery except for the food which is prepared from street vendors.
2. As the 3 street vendors we've observed don't charge extra for takeaway and other delivery services charge quite a steep fee (UberEats for instance charges $1.5 or THB 50 per order), I image we have room to create a small margin without employing discounts on the order - though this is certainly an assumption to test.
3. This is a very good suggestion and one that we could test out with companies. Initially, having our own stock of Pinto containers both for individuals and companies would make it easier to manage. We're definitely open to this option, especially if we do decide to optimize and create a new design for the Pinto! Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi Christel - thank you! If I understand your question correctly, the concern is about having enough food to cater to a larger from a shop that is usually used to smaller crowds?
If so, I did speak with one of the food vendors who indicated concerns about catering as his shops serve several different dishes (most street vendors specialize in 1-2 dishes). His response was as long as he can know ahead of time - he said early morning for lunch orders, though this will obviously have to be ironed out - he should be able to accept bulk orders.
Other than that, I'm glad you can make sense of the BM Canvas!
