More about Mayank Nagori

Developing the future of food | Committed to a future with zero food waste & hunger | Founder, Food Tech Consultant & Science Enthusiast

Food has been the fuel of our existence, we made food and food is what we're made of. With the commercialization of commodities, we have forgotten its importance to every individual.
Doesn't everyone on this planet need to have an equal right to eat for their sustenance?
What are we doing to reach that goal?

These are the questions that I seek to answer with my expertise in food processing and handling. I'm working on processes to reduce, reuse and recycle the food waste around us. My end goal is to make sure no food enters the dust bin and no one sleeps hungry around me!

My religion says- Eat and let eat!

Gud Gum

Regular chewing gums are 100% plastic. Once spat, they are not recyclable and also pose a health risk due to possible ingestion of plastic. 

Gud Gum is India's first 100% plastic-free & natural chewing gum. Made with natural colours, flavours and sweeteners.

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
