Since its initial boom in popularity circa 2010, the subscription box model has had its ups and downs, but it appears that it’s back on the rise. The Covid-19 pandemic played a large role in this turnaround, with customers buying back into delivery services and the trend has help up in the few years post pandemic.
Universal Yums, which launched in 2014 and steadily gained acclaim, is one company at the forefront of this revival, and it's aiming to keep the momentum going.
The company sends subscribers a monthly snack package, with each month featuring food from a different country, along with informative content about that cuisine and culture.

Having recently doubled the size of its warehouse HQ and aiming to increase its headcount significantly, the company is now looking to enter another stage of aggressive growth.
