TechCrunch: P2P home chef platform Housebites shuts service, shifts model

“In an email to TechCrunch, Housebites CEO and co-founder Simon Prockter confirmed that its take-out business is indeed no more: “Is Housebites dead-pooled? Yes,” he says. “Is Housebites gone? No. We just closed the takeaway part. Admittedly the larger part of our business and the product that we were best known for.”

Instead the company plans to focus on a new product, internally known as Project Fresh, although specifically what that new offering is, Prockter isn’t saying. “Housebites is not going anywhere and we’ll be back soon doing something that keeps us more of an Internet rather than restaurant business,” he says.” – Steve O’Hear, TechCrunch
