About the team & role :
Railways are the backbone of India. However, the passenger experience is broken across the board.
Starting with food, where the food served in pantries & platforms is not fit for human consumption,
Railofy is on a mission to create the largest & the most trustworthy brand in this space. Since launch
in Jan 2020, Railofy has scaled to become the leading online food brand in each of the stations that it
operates.
We are a VC-funded startup solving one of the biggest transportation problems India faces. Most passengers in India travel long distance by IRCTC trains. At time of booking, approx 1 out of every 2 passengers end up with a Waitlisted or RAC ticket.

Protection can be bought against each IRCTC ticket
at time of booking. If train ticket is not confirmed, we fly the passenger to the destination. Our team consists of 3 Founders from IIT, IIM and ISB.
