Arabian Business was always part of my morning routine. I would scroll through the founder profiles and quietly wonder what it would take to one day be on those pages. Today, Peekabox is. I have read the article three times just to make it sink in. Six weeks since launch. → 90,000 downloads. → 50 new major partners signed, all going live by the end of July. → Hit 15k followers on socials all organic It still feels like we have only just started. Moments like this make you stop and notice how far we have come in such a short time. Thank you to Justin Harper and the Arabian Business team for telling the story. And thank you to every person who has downloaded, ordered, partnered, invested, advised, or just believed in what we are building. This is your win as much as ours. Link in comments.

In the UAE, Peekabox says food waste is significant: more than US$3.5 billion worth of food is wasted annually, while 38 percent of food prepared daily is thrown out. Globally, the platform points to food waste as a US$1 trillion-plus problem. Peekabox is trying to move that surplus into a different part of the P&L. The UAE-based food-tech platform connects consumers with restaurants, cafés, bakeries and grocers selling surplus food at a discount. Through the app, users buy “surprise boxes” or selected items from participating outlets, typically at 50 to 70 percent off, then collect the order from the store. Customers get lower-cost access to recognisable brands at a time when living costs are rising. For operators, inventory that would otherwise be written off can generate incremental revenue, drive footfall and support waste-reduction targets. Peekabox says it has now signed more than 1,000 store locations across brands including Costa Coffee, Tim Hortons, Carrefour, Pret a Manger, Dunkin’, Krispy Kreme, Union Coop, Eataly, Ladurée, Armani/Caffè, PAUL, Choithrams, Cinnabon and Peet’s. Its partners span major regional operators including Emirates Leisure Retail, Majid Al Futtaim, Apparel Group, Azadea, Americana, Cravia and Emaar Hospitality.

Coverage in Khaleej Times this weekend. The piece zoomed in on something we think matters: the actual price tag. Dh15 for a grocery surprise box, around Dh30 for bakeries, coffee shops, sushi outlets, and restaurants. That number lands when you consider most UAE households spend Dh800 to Dh1,500 a month on food. This is the side of Peekabox that does not always make the headline but sits at the heart of the model. Affordability and food waste, tackled in the same transaction. Thank you to Sahim Salim and the Khaleej Times team for telling the story properly. Link in comments.

50,000 people have downloaded Peekabox. Two weeks ago we launched. That number means more to me than any chart or metric. Behind it are 50,000 people who chose to save food instead of letting it go to waste. 50,000 small decisions that add up to something real. This is exactly why Omair and I built Peekabox. Good food being thrown away every single day, while the cost of living keeps climbing. We knew there was a better way, and it has been incredible to watch this many people get behind it so quickly. To everyone who downloaded, reserved a box, sent us a screenshot, or told a friend, thank you. You made this happen. We are not slowing down. There is a long way to go, more brands to bring on, more cities ahead, more food to save. But two weeks in, I just wanted to stop for a second and say thank you. This one means a lot. If you have not tried Peekabox yet, now is a good time. iOS and Android.

Peekabox in The National. Coverage like this matters because it puts a spotlight on the problem, not just the company. The article highlights that nearly 40% of food in the UAE is thrown away every year. That is the challenge our whole team comes in to work on. Since launch, the momentum has been humbling. Every new partner means more surplus food finding its way to a customer instead of a bin. We are grateful to The National for telling this story, and grateful to the partners, the team, and the early users who are making it real. Article link in comments.

At Cravia, we’re always looking for smarter ways to pair great food with more thoughtful, sustainable choices 💡 That’s why Cinnabon UAE is now part of Peekabox, a new platform helping guests enjoy their favorite baked treats at a great value, while also helping reduce food waste! The response since launch has already been incredibly encouraging, showing just how much appetite there is for solutions that are good for both people and the planet. Peekabox is now live in the UAE, with Cinnabon surprise bags ready to be discovered on the app. #Sustainability #Peekabox #Cinnabon
