David Stache is a certified nutritionist. He first invested his passion for healthy living into a business by opening Nourish, a healthy fast food restaurant, in Sheffield in October 2014.
After a successful year a second store was opened in Leeds thanks to a Start Up Loan from the Business Enterprise Fund.
“I’ve lived in Leeds for 9 years now so I know it well, it made sense to open here” said David.
Nourish’s carefully created menu ensures each customer gets a healthy nutritious meal. To make this available for all, David was able to fit this into a fast food model, proving you can be healthy on the move.
In its central location Nourish Leeds has been a popular hit with business men and women for breakfast and lunch. David’s ambition is for Nourish to educate the public too and make a difference in the world. This includes free workshops on healthy eating, ethical shopping and sustainability, as well as a scheme for customers to buy meals for homeless people.
BEF exist to help new and emerging businesses get off the ground. Investment Manager Julie Micklethwaite saw the potential of Nourish and the difference it could make. Since opening in Leeds David has created 19 new jobs, 17 of which are full time. This is set to increase as more chefs are employed and a food delivery service is launched.
