Kitopi is a tech-powered food company. We partner with and invest in restaurants and food concepts to help them expand beyond borders. Founded in 2018, our mission is to satisfy the world’s appetite.
Kitopi (pronounced: “Kee-Toh-Pee”) stands for Kitchen Utopia. We are enablers, partnering with brands to deliver food about you. We do this by providing services centered around (but not limited to) sourcing, preparing, producing, and packaging - working closely with our delivery partners to ensure a safe and quick delivery. This is made possible thanks to our in-built, pioneering cloud kitchen technology 'SKOS' - a first-of-its-kind innovation in the world and our 3500+ Kitopians, who bring their best every day.
In addition to on-demand meals cooked in our cloud kitchens, we also offer subscription-based meal plans and a first-of-its-kind virtual food court concept Mix ‘N’ Match. Kitopi currently operates more than 100 kitchens across the UAE, KSA, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar with its tech-hub in Poland and its customer experience center in the UAE.
