Goldbely is a curated online marketplace for regional and artisanal foods crafted by local food purveyors throughout the United States.[2] Goldbely's staff curates products from restaurants, bakeries, delis, etc. to feature on the site and facilitates shipping across all 50 states.[3]

History

The company was founded by Joe Ariel and is based in San Francisco, United States.[4] The site accepted into Y-Combinator in 2013.[5] In 2013, Goldbely closed on $3 million seed funding led by Intel Capital.[6]

Time Magazine named Goldbely one of the 50 Best Websites of 2013.[7] The company raised $3 million USD in seed funding led by Intel Capital in 2013.[8] The ordered food sometimes requires preparation and cooking.[9]

Criticism

According to one review, as some of the food is frozen, the experience can sometimes differ from the taste customers get at the restaurant.[10]
