Restaurant Entrepreneur Series: Project Chaiwala
Episode description
Are you the type of entrepreneur who gulps coffee to power through the entire day, or do you prefer to take breaks, enjoy a snack, and relax with a soothing cup of chai tea?
If you’re the latter and you’re in the UAE, chances are you’ve already seen and visited this popular brand serving real, authentic tea inspired by tea cultures from all over the world. I’m talking about Project Chaiwala founded by Ahmed Kazim and Justin Joseph, whom I’m interviewing in the Elevated Entrepreneur Podcast this week. Their homegrown tea concept brings a nostalgic charm and traditional recipes to a modern setting and celebrates chai culture every day.
In this episode, you’ll get a closer look at how these two friends turned their love for chai into a successful business venture, how they got started, its impact on their consumers, suppliers, and the world, and where they're taking this business in the future.
