Peter Hwang, CEO and Founder of Tre'dish, said: “As the child of first-generation immigrant business owners, I know firsthand the dedication that is needed to run a business in the food and hospitality sector but also the growing challenges to do so sustainably. Countless food entrepreneurs work day and night, seven days a week, to keep their businesses afloat. This is a huge driver behind why Tre’dish was founded.”
"With a passionate support system to help independent food businesses excel, Tre'dish is not only the solution to ongoing systematic problems within the food and hospitality industries but also a cultural movement that aims to create lasting change and impact globally. Tre’dish has identified the ingredients to help small food business owners thrive and is committed to providing an unbeatable advantage in building and scaling in today's competitive food and hospitality industry," added Peter.
Tre’dish’s model comes at a time when the industry needs it most and has the potential to be influential for the future of food, aiming to solve some of the biggest issues in the food and hospitality sectors – from low wages and failure rates, to food inflation.
“The reality is, there are a lot of platforms and marketplaces for food businesses to sell their products, but that doesn’t mean those sales are truly profitable. Tre'dish champions the success of food entrepreneurs, providing them with the tools they need to build and scale their passion profitably and sustainably. Our platform is focused on the person behind the food," said Srin Sridharan, Co-Founder of Tre'dish.
Tre'dish is more than just a platform for food entrepreneurs. It's a movement for change towards a more sustainable and equitable food and hospitality industry. By ordering through Tre'dish, organizations and consumers can make a positive, measurable impact on both their local economy and the global food system, becoming part of a purposeful movement to bolster entrepreneurship and overcome systemic issues within the food and hospitality industry.
Tre'dish is currently onboarding local food businesses in Toronto, Chicago, Vancouver, Montreal, San Diego, Los Angeles, Boston and other locations, before accelerating its growth to open their suite of tools to any food business in North America.
