A Belfast business owner is opening his doors on Christmas Day to help those most in need of a warm meal and some company. Joe Elshewihi, was a young Egyptian entrepreneur when he first arrived in Belfast 20 years ago and now runs a variety of successful businesses across Belfast in cosmetics, male grooming, self catering accommodation and hospitality.
The 39-year-old knows how hard it can be to develop a business to a profitable level and admits it was challenging at the start of his career, but he now employs over 25 staff and is actively involved in the day to day running of all his businesses. Joe’s most recent venture is “Falafel Fresh” Restaurant. They opened over a year ago in Belfast city centre in Bridge Street, the former site of well known 'Mikey's Deli' restaurant. They specialise in healthy Mediterranean cuisine and have had many great reviews over the past year. This Christmas Joe and his staff will be giving back to the community by offering free food to anyone who needs it between 12 - 3pm on Christmas Day in store while stocks last. A spokesperson for the business said: 'Joe knows how lonely it can be for people to be away from their family at Christmas and not everyone can afford to eat a healthy meal at Christmas time. 'This is a perfect opportunity for Joe and his staff at Falafel Fresh to show their appreciation and welcome everyone on Christmas day to their shop so it can be used as a hub for anyone who would like some company on Christmas day between 12 - 9pm (for usual business opening hours).'
