Our Story

Built by the diaspora, for the diaspora. GouGo was born from a simple question: why is it so hard to find authentic Haitian food?

Our Mission

To connect the Haitian and Caribbean diaspora with authentic cuisine worldwide โ€” celebrating our culture, supporting our restaurants, and bringing our community together one meal at a time.

How GouGo Started

Growing up in the Haitian diaspora, finding authentic Haitian food was always a challenge. Whether you were in Boston, Miami, Paris, or Montreal โ€” you knew the food was out there, but finding it was never easy.

GouGo was created to solve that problem. We built the first app dedicated exclusively to discovering Haitian and Caribbean restaurants worldwide โ€” from the bustling streets of Port-au-Prince to the heart of New York City.

More than just a restaurant finder, GouGo is a community. A place where food lovers from the diaspora can share their experiences, discover hidden gems, earn rewards, and support Haitian and Caribbean restaurant owners everywhere.

We believe food is culture. And our culture deserves to be celebrated, discovered, and shared with the world. ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡น
