Oh!My Snacks
The project launched this week was born as part of the Banco Montepio Acredita Portugal competition to offer healthy snacks. Oh!My Snacks won last year's Product category.
The Oh!My Snacks project was launched this week. It is through dozens of categories and hundreds of snacks selected with the help of nutritionists that the Oh!My Snacks algorithm determines the perfect box for each customer out of the billions of existing combinations. The project won in the Product category of last year's Banco Montepio entrepreneurship competition Believe in Portugal. Participation in the initiative validated the concept and was a further stimulus for a dream dictated by a concrete need with no response in the market.
Tired of looking for healthy and convenient options to satisfy your need for snacking, Ricardo Alves, founder of Oh!My Snacks, envisioned a service that would bring you these snacks on a regular basis and ensure that they were not only healthy, but also completely in line with your tastes and nutritional goals. If they were different snacks every week, even better.
“Talking to other people, I saw that the problem was widespread. In an attempt to eat healthily, people ate the usual boring snacks or wasted a lot of time looking for options.”, he comments.
The idea grew and so did the desire to create it. “I'm very familiar with the technology that makes it possible to implement this service because I've been doing it for 15 years. The recipe was to combine my degree in mathematics, my experience in e-commerce, retail and learning the MBA.”.
In the current subscription service, customers can receive their box with 5 or 10 snacks, on a weekly or fortnightly basis, as well as pause the subscription or change delivery dates, all without loyalty so that convenience is total.
The idea of creating this unique service and the desire to launch Oh!My Snacks were reasons enough to convince investors, in a consortium that brings together Ganexa Capital, Clever Advertising, Nolita Food and Subvisual.
The 11th edition of the Banco Montepio Acredita Portugal competition is underway, with the winners to be announced at the beginning of October.
