Future of Food Tech - KBox Global - Salima Vellani

Today’s guest is Salima Vellani, the founder and CEO of KBox Global- a company pioneering something called host kitchens, the next wave of innovation in the food delivery space. 

They have raised around £17 million from investors, making Salima one of the most heavily backed female founders in the UK. 

My very first meeting in Number 10 was with Will Shu, the founder of a then up and coming food and beverage company called Deliveroo. Even then Will mentioned the concept of Dark Kitchens and it’s fascinating to hear how even that concept is now being innovated.

Salima talks us through exactly how host kitchens work, what it takes to set up a career in the Food and Beverage industry and how tech is allowing a rapid upskilling right across the hospitality industry. 

We’ve also launched a new website- find us at jobsofthefuture.co
