    Try The World is a fast growing VC backed startup based in NYC, offering the best way to discover delicious food from around the world. Try The World is an online discovery platform for individuals and companies. Subscribers receive a gourmet box from a new country every 2 months and can keep buying individual products on the online store. Try The World also launched a Holiday Pop-Up store in the Lower East Side.

    Try The World grew from 500 customers to 50,000 customers in 1 year and is projecting to double in 2016.

    Founded in May 2013 by two Columbia University graduates, Try The World has been covered by Huffington Post, Food & Wine, the Wall Street Journal, Fortune, CNN, NBC, and more, and has raised funds from strategic angel and institutional investors. The company is experiencing tremendous growth, doubling its subscription base almost every 2 months. Our goal is to become the largest online seller of foreign products in the US.
