This story is a testament to what it truly means to embark on a journey of unwavering dedication and relentless perseverance.
It's about waking up every day, no matter how tough it gets, to chase your dream, even when it feels like nobody is noticing your efforts.
The divine truth is that when you're called to a purpose, you can trust that it comes with a promise, a promise that God will lead you to the
right people, create the perfect profile, and supply the individuals you need.
Kitchenpundit, my brainchild, was officially brought into existence in April 2020. The inception of this venture is a story of bold decisions,
like leaving behind a comfortable, well-paying job to start a business in the confines of my father's house, armed with just one solitary pot,
one staff member – who has since played a pivotal role in nurturing over 15 staff and numerous contracted workers.
Commencing the journey was nothing short of terrifying, and I want to be honest; there were moments when the business
struggled to yield any returns. There were days when I had to tighten my belt and take groceries to cover the essentials.
However, I was driven by a determination to be different. I didn't want to be just another vendor in Warri; I aimed to make a mark.
In just three years, our name is now on the lips of 85% of the population in our city and well beyond. The hard work paid off,
and we no longer need to prove ourselves because we know the quality of our service speaks volumes. In this short span of time,
we've also ventured into education, establishing the Kitchenpundit Catering Academy, with a mission to train and equip 76% of
individuals to create a better tomorrow.
To anyone considering embarking on a journey of their own, my advice is simple: Start and start scared. Approach your craft
with the same level of dedication as you would for academic studies. Practice your art every day and envision success.
Invest wholeheartedly in your passion because we are in the era of Gen Z, and the world feeds their eyes on social media.
With relentless dedication and persistence, your destination is guaranteed.
