Suite à l’événement «Start-up Stories: Round 2» organisé par le Paperjam Club le mercredi 12 juin au Knokke Out, l’un des start-upper, César Niccoletti (Food4All), partage sa vision d’entrepreneur.

From the idea to its realization, there is only one step... and yet. What was the trigger for your entrepreneurial adventure?

César Niccoletti. - “Our adventure started while we were still studying and living the student life to its maximum. But like everyone, budget was tight and eating healthy was difficult.

During that time, a lot of scandals regarding supermarket waste were popping out and the paradox behind this international issue was mind-blowing. The real trigger was seeing, not only us, but a lot of our friends and others in the same situation whilst on the other hand, tons of still consumable products were being wasted for no good reason. When suddenly your close group of friends start to “Dumpster Dive”, it really affected us that nothing was being done for a huge part of society.

As two young women wanting to change the world, the decision was rapidly made and F4A was soon created.

What are the qualities needed to launch your startup?

“It’s not cheesy but the truth: motivation, persistence, patience, resilience!

Do you have any advice for those who are still hesitant to get started?

“If you truly have a passion for what you do and strongly believe that your solution can change the world then just go for it! It will not be the easiest path, but in the end, we promise it will be worth everything!”
