It's Wednesday, and we are thrilled to host Mr.
Tadiwos Belete, the founder of Kuriftu Resorts and Boston Day Spa.
Tadiwos shared his journey of constructing all of this, starting with his departure from Ethiopia at the age of 16, returning to a refugee camp in Sudan, and working as a household servant with a 10 ETB salary.
In this episode, we explore the hospitality and tourism sector, discussing how they expanded to 150 rooms from an initial 18.
We showcase his 22 years of entrepreneurship experience in Ethiopia, his leadership style, and how they developed Kuriftu Resorts without relying on foreign models.
Join us to learn from Tadiwos Belete's diverse life experiences and entrepreneurial journey in the hospitality and tourism sector.
