About Zelia
Zelia has been with the Kaspace Cafe brand since inception. Working alongside Kevin Allwood, founder of Allwood Market, the idea of a plant-based and vegetarian cafe came from a personal desire to find food she would want to eat each day. As a new plant-based eater, the journey was not an easy one. The dream of creating a food space began with the personal desire for healthy, flavourful, plant-based "soul-food." Kaspace Cafe brings you the best-tasting foods made from the cleanest and most nutrient-rich ingredients possible. Zelia is inspired by the idea that eating well is the simplest and most effective way to improve one’s health, well-being, and mood.
Why we love Zelia
Zelia is unique. She's a combination of things one doesn't normally find in one person. Creative, entrepreneurial, wise, friendly, kind, open, beautiful, funny, hardworking, dedicated, loving. The list could go on. This is what makes this extraordinary woman very special in our eyes. She owns her business but she never makes you feel "lesser than" or intimidated. Zelia makes everyone who enters her space feel valued and heard. She knows how to connect in a deep, authentic way. She inspires us to be better, and do better, and this is why we're spotlighting this amazing entrepreneur.
