Mahana Fresh Journey Blends with Life's Work By Joseph Rahael

Mahana Fresh Journey Blends with Life's Work

by Joseph Rahael, Entrepreneur

Growing up in Trinidad and Tobago, I started working in my family business weekends and summers from my early teens. To say those years with formative would be a gross understatement.

The time spent working with my grandfather, father and two uncles and aunt were the equivalent of multiple University degrees. Not to mention a vast amount of life lessons and Common Sense experiences. I learned so much from those days and it sparked the entrepreneur inside me. I never looked back. I continued my entrepreneurial education by by Joseph Rahael, Entrepreneur getting a double major from the Wharton School in real estate development and finance. After graduation I worked for the family business in the USA and Trinidad and Tobago working on all facets of real estate development in major commercial projects.

To give back to the community, I was an investor on Trinidad's version of Shark Tank known as "Planting Seeds". It gave me the opportunity to participate with and advise up and coming young entrepreneurs. Seeing the creativity and ambition of my fellow Trinis was an extremely rewarding experience. And now the Mahana journey begins... my next entrepreneurial venture will blend all of my life's work, experiences, and joys all into one fabulous opportunity of retail, real estate and food. I’m looking for partners who can help grow this amazing brand.

Mahana fresh is a fast casual dining experience centered around great tasting, fresh healthy, affordable, fast service, gluten-free cuisine. I am developing the rights for all of South Florida.

Mahana is a Hawaiian word meaning the warmth of the Sun, and at our restaurants we intend to provide a warm, welcoming, fresh and delicious dining experience indicative of the brightness and positivity of the sun. I am truly excited and eager to share Mahana with South Florida and if you are interested in opening one, we should talk! A large number of Trini friends are reaching out to make investments into the USA alongside entrepreneurs from South Florida. I am looking forward to sharing Mahana with South Florida and I know when you taste the food once you’ll know why this is the best franchise option in the QSR space!
