Kathmandu, November 10
Young Nepali entrepreneurs have opened a new bakery and café, Artisan Cookies and Sweets, in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is a joint investment.
The café was founded by two Nepali entrepreneurs, including Shishir Shrestha. Senior journalist and writer Shiva Upreti inaugurated it.
Artisan Cookies and Sweets will serve cookies, fresh croissants, a variety of cakes, and coffee. The operators say they started the business to offer customers a fresh experience through quality flavours and excellent service.
Many Nepali youths go to the UAE for foreign employment and better opportunities. Their decision to run a business together is being seen as an expansion of Nepali entrepreneurship abroad. By building an identity through business while working overseas, they have shown the potential for entrepreneurship among Nepali youth.
