Common Questions
How is pricing determined for consulting services?
All consulting is custom-priced based on the scope of your project — the number of menu items, complexity of the analysis, and deliverables required. Contact us with your requirements and we will provide a detailed estimate.
Do you provide FSSAI certification or official compliance documents?
No. GrowRain is not an FSSAI-authorised certification body. Our nutrition labelling and food safety content is based on FSSAI guidelines for reference purposes. For official FSSAI compliance certification, you must engage with an FSSAI-authorised consultant or laboratory.
Do you work with businesses outside major cities?
Yes. Our consulting services are delivered remotely and are available to food businesses across India — regardless of city or location.
What information do I need to send to start a food cost analysis?
Send us your recipe list with approximate ingredient quantities per dish. We handle the rest — sourcing current market pricing, calculating food cost percentages, and preparing the analysis report.
How long does a menu engineering audit typically take?
A standard menu engineering audit for a restaurant with 30–60 items typically takes 7–10 working days from the time we receive all required information. Timeline is confirmed in the project proposal.
