Hi Denell, what do you attribute your success to?
The most important factor behind my brand is my kids i want my kids to see that dreams come tru if you stand an work hard nothing in this world comes easy especially for people of color.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business is a variety of my childhood an culture. KINGNELLZFOODZ is a Spanish an Sulful catering home business my dishes are different recipes i grow up on .I feel my business is different because I’m mixing both Spanish an soulfood together an we are family oriented business when you come to us you to feel like you apart of our family.Iam most proud an excited about how fare i have came an were iam today an that i did not give up even when i wanted to so bad but god an family keeps me going iam excited to see were this Journey takes me as a chef an business owner .How did i get to were iam today as a business owner I listen an watch everybody an thing I’m still Learning as i go so i take things that i have ganged these last few years an took that an made it work for me it has not been easy no everyone is doing the same thing so making my business different from the rest was something i had to really work hard on.What i want the world to know about me an my business that we are a business that wants to help everyone eat this is not just a job an yes the money is awesome but we want to help an rebuild our people back up feed the world is the goal everyone should eat an i want to be the one who feeds our families
