Alright, Goran thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.
I basically met someone which had a friend in the commercial production industry and gave me a start knowing I’m a trained chef.
After working in treatment facilities in Malibu and Hollywood while simultaneously building my business it started to grow and expand.
We finally catered our first TV show this Summer called -Is it cake ?
A major milestone plus exciting challenges in creating new products..
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
