2015 - Traditional Food and Handicraft Shop

Helping entrepreneurs who want to expand their business is something that I am very excited about. Walking through the business journey, ideas execution, and consistently building the brand, following an urgency to have a proper official platform, this business inspires me so much 🤩.

I often have ideas and run small design agencies and small-scale software development businesses. Still, I am not consistent 😩, so I usually drop out in the middle of the road because I don't focus on my full-time job, but I learn a lot because the early stages of starting a business are the most challenging thing 🥲.

Minang Mississauga has a simple action, the owner brought food as a gifts from his village (Padang, Indonesia) he gave it to his friend. It turns out the owner's friend loves the taste and asked him to get some of the food for more 💗🥘. This action developed into a business idea to sell Padang food and souvenirs for citizens in Mississauga, Canada.

I was asked to make a simple website design and highlight the traditional impression; I brought brown color 🛖, often the color of the Minangkabau traditional house made from wood.

So far, my clients are pretty satisfied with the website I created. I am also happy because I can help export Indonesian traditional handicrafts and food to foreign countries 🏅.
