Early Life and Background
The story of Mapango Pizza began on April 15, 2020, in Najafgarh, New Delhi, when Mayank Rastogi, a visionary entrepreneur with more than 12 years of experience in the food and beverage industry, business consulting, sales, marketing, event planning, and strategic alliances, decided to bring his dream to life. Born out of a passion for crafting the finest pizzas in the city, Mapango Pizza started as a modest endeavour but soon grew wings of ambition. Mayank Rastogi, the driving force behind the brand, assembled a team of former employees from renowned international pizzeria brands, infusing Mapango Pizza with a blend of global expertise and local sensibilities. With a commitment to quality and a deep understanding of the Indian food culture, the journey of Mapango Pizza was set in motion.
