MadhWai

Authentic street food in fifteen minutes — and a fair deal for the people who cook it.

MadhWai puts India's street vendors on the map: one basket across many stalls for you, legal identity and digital payments for them.

“Where food brings us together.”

Our customer, vendor and delivery apps are in final testing ahead of a pilot in Noida & Greater Noida.

The problem

India runs on street food. The system was never built for the people making it.

A vendor can sell to hundreds of customers a day and still be invisible to a bank, a landlord, or a government scheme. MadhWai closes three gaps at once.

No legal identity

Without a Certificate of Vending, there is no proof of livelihood — so no loans, no insurance, no protection from eviction.

No payment record

Cash in, cash out. Nothing a lender can read, and no cushion when a slow week or a health scare hits.

No route to customers

Aggregators favour restaurants and dark kitchens. The stall two lanes away never shows up in the app.

For customers

Order from a street, not just a restaurant.

Chaat from one stall, dosa from another, jalebi from a third — in a single order that reaches you before it goes cold.

STEP 01

Browse your locality

See the verified stalls near you with real hygiene ratings, today's menu and live prep times.

STEP 02

Fill one basket

Add items from several vendors at once. MadhWai batches the pickup so nothing arrives soggy.

STEP 03

Track to your door

One rider, one route, 10–15 minutes. Pay by UPI; the vendor is settled the same day.

For vendors

Everything a stall needs to be treated like a business.

Onboarding costs ₹1,000 once, with the first month free and EMI options. A field team handles the paperwork in your language.

Certificate of Vending

Registration under the Street Vendors Act, 2014, plus digital KYC and an MCD-issued CoV.

FSSAI & hygiene training

Food-handling certification and a hygiene score customers can see — earned, not bought.

Same-day UPI settlement

Money in the account by evening, and a statement that finally reads as income.

Working-capital advances

Small, short advances against your MadhWai sales history — through licensed NBFC partners.

Vendor app in your language

Hindi, Bhojpuri, Bengali, Tamil and more — orders, stock and payouts, read aloud if you need.

Demand forecasts

How much to prep tomorrow, adjusted for weather, festivals and last week's footfall.

What we offer

A vendor services platform, not just delivery.

Delivery is the entry point. It builds the vendor base and trust that legal, supply and finance layers grow from.

Digital ordering & delivery

Discovery, ordering and delivery for existing street-food vendors.

Legal recognition & CoV

Assistance registering vendors and securing a Certificate of Vending under the Street Vendors Act.

Harassment protection

Formal recognition as a documented step against bribes and arbitrary eviction.

Hygiene & FSSAI training

Food-safety compliance support and hygiene training, visible to customers as an earned score.

Raw-material supply

Pooled sourcing to cut vendor input costs.

UCO collection & resale

Used cooking oil collected and resold for biodiesel.

Vendor financing

Loans and working capital based on order history, through licensed partners.

Sustainability · long-term

The oil won't go down the drain.

As we scale delivery routes, riders will collect used cooking oil from vendors and carry it back for recycling into biodiesel. Vendors earn a small margin; the neighbourhood keeps its water clean.

Paired with compostable packaging, the goal is for each order to leave a slightly smaller footprint rather than a larger one.
