Known for his visionary leadership and sharp business acumen, Pulkit has built a reputation for helping entrepreneurs and established brands scale successfully in India’s dynamic hospitality sector.
Born and raised in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, Pulkit’s passion for the food industry began in childhood.

After working as a Business Analyst for leading startups and software firms, Pulkit chose to follow his true calling.
In 2015, he co‑founded a food startup with his college junior, Simranjeet Singh, and by 2019, the duo launched CYK Hospitalities. Their vision was clear: to provide comprehensive HoReCa consulting services under one roof. Today, CYK offers expertise in brand expansion strategies, concept development, SOP building, digital marketing, brand promotions, franchise model creation, and more. The company has successfully supported restaurants, QSR chains, cloud kitchens, and food brands across India.
Pulkit’s journey reflects resilience, risk‑taking, and a commitment to excellence. Beyond business, he is a bibliophile, movie enthusiast, and avid photographer, with a love for spending time with his family in Gurugram, where he lives with his wife and son. His story is one of passion meeting perseverance, inspiring many in the hospitality industry to dream bigger and build stronger.
