Suzanne Shian is one of three co-founders behind PichaEats, a social enterprise in Malaysia that aims to empower lives among the refugee community through a food business. The business model behind PichaEats is a 50-50 partnership with chefs. Each chef will source and buy ingredients, and PichaEats will pay them double, meaning 100% profit for the chef. PichaEats then sells the food at double the cost, building in profit each step of the way. While PichaEats is serving a very practical need for refugee communities to earn income, it's also become a form of cultural exchange. Today, they have 16 chefs who are from Palestine, Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq.
