PITCHING SPEECH

company introduction

Good afternoon everyone, and thank you for joining us. I’m Aygul, the managing director of Makanify. Our mission is simple yet innovative and ambitious—to transform disposable plastic cutlery into a sustainable, edible experience. Our name and slogan, Makanify, ‘Eat Your Utensils, Save the Planet,’ captures the heart of what we aim to achieve, in a localized way.

At Makanify, we’re a general partnership, bringing together a team of diverse expertise. Fatima, our operations director, ensures smooth daily operations; Sofia, our marketing director, leads our brand and marketing efforts; Snubs, is our finance director; Sivaneshwarri leads our product development to guarantee top-notch quality; and lastly Maxim drives our sales and partnership initiatives. Together, we aim to revolutionize how we dine while taking significant strides toward a greener, eco-friendly future.

Problem and solution

Plastic waste, particularly from single-use cutlery, is a growing global crisis especially here in Malaysia. Every day, disposable utensils end up in landfills and oceans, contributing to environmental destruction. Research even shows that Malaysia generates over 148,000 metric tons of plastic waste annually, much of it from disposable cutlery. 

At Makanify, we saw an opportunity to turn this problem on its head. Imagine a utensil that not only performs its function but can also be eaten, and naturally decompose without harming our environment. Our solution is to replace plastic cutlery with our edible, biodegradable alternatives. Our innovation not only tackles this plastic waste issue but also transforms waste into a valuable resource, creating a win-win situation for both the environment and our consumers. Overall Makanify provides a sustainable, guilt-free dining experience that actively reduces the plastic pollution.

Product information

At Makanify, we believe that sustainability should be both practical and enjoyable. Our edible utensils are engineered to be 100% eco-friendly, durable and delicious, ensuring they perform exceptionally for any everyday meal whether it’s cold or hot. They’re made from a variety of natural, nutrient-rich ingredients like wheats, oats, corn, chickpeas, rice flour, and cassava starch

Now what else makes us unique? Our diverse variety of appetizing flavors that add a delightful twist to every meal. Consumers can enjoy sweet options like vanilla, chocolate, coconut, and palm sugar, or go for a more savory experience with spicy sambal-infused, turmeric-pepper seasoning, plain with salt, or even pandan—a locally loved flavor. This gives us a competitive edge, catering to both local and global markets.

By choosing Makanify, you’re not just opting for an eco-friendly alternative; you’re embracing a revolutionary dining experience that transforms everyday consumption into a waste free experience and an act of sustainability for our future. Makanify’s consumers don’t just eat their meal—they eat their utensils and save the planet!
