WHY INVEST IN OUR DELIVER/CATERING KITCHEN?

- The current size of the global food delivery market is $35 Billion

MEET THE TEAM
Shanna (On the left) - Born and raised in Chamonix, France. Moved to Florida at the age of 14. Earned a full scholarship at University of San Francisco to continue to pursue her tennis dreams. Her father was Angolan and her mother is French. Her parents owned a Bed & Breakfast in France during Shanna's childhood. She found passion in cooking as well as owning a business. Unfortunately, her father passed away unexpectedly a few years ago. After the storm, she wanted to find a way to forever honor his legacy. As she got laid off from all 3 jobs that she was working because of COVID-19, Shanna got inspired to open a business of African food to honor him while still honoring all aspects of her diverse cultured background.
Ghada (On the right) - Born and raised in Paris, France. Moved to Florida at the age of 26 with her twin brother. She came here to pursue her dreams as an entrepreneur in America. Her father is Persian & Lebanese and her mother is Moroccan. Her parents have been involved in the food industry for over 20 years. She developed a real passion for cooking. Family means everything to Ghada. Because she misses her family back home and the hardship to find a good paying job during the pandemic (COVID-19), Ghada got inspired to make traditional food from her culture that her family absolutely masters as a way to remind her that they're always with her while she is working on building a family legacy.
