KATHMANDU -- Nepal's largest online food delivery company has grown hungry to expand nationwide, after surviving early lean years and the devastating 2015 earthquake in the Himalayan country.

Foodmandu last month raised series B funding from Team Ventures, a local private investment fund, in exchange for a 20% stake in the startup. Details of the transactions were not disclosed.
