Two of the industry’s most innovative female entrepreneurs will also be attending RLS: Palisa Anderson of Chat Thai, and Sarah Holloway, co-founder of Matcha Maiden and Matcha Mylkbar.
Anderson will be taking part in a one-on-one Q&A session, sharing the story of Chat Thai’s incredible success and how it’s managed to garner a cult-like following amongst both chefs and diners. She’ll also shed light on why she’s decided not to franchise her business, and how she manages the brand’s growth while also maintaining quality and consistency.
Holloway will deliver a 10 minute presentation, inspiring the audience with the incredible success story that is Matcha Maiden. She’ll provide insight into the brand’s global expansion and outline on the financial benefits of operating a vegan café.
