Juggling a growing business venture with a day job is something brothers Simmy and Jhai Dhillon have become used to since launching a meal prep company a few years ago.
But this isn't due to lack of success in their meal preparation business, called Rice n Spice, based in the south of England, which now counts soccer stars as clients. They include Leicester City player Demarai Gray and Wycombe Wanderers' Adebayo Akinfenwa — the world's strongest soccer player according to the stats on videogame "FIFA 20."
So seeing a business opportunity he used his student overdraft to buy ingredients and started making fresh meals to sell out of his own kitchen, putting any money made back into the healthier takeout venture. As it evolved into a health-goal orientated meal preparation business, Rice n Spice started to become popular locally to the point that Simmy decided to defer his final year at Bristol and focus on it full-time, but not before completing a summer internship at Rothschild & Co investment bank.
Simmy's upcoming job at Google has inspired him to integrate automation into Rice n Spice's business model, by enabling customers to pick meals according to their health goal of "fat loss, maintenance or muscle."Rice n Spice now has 17 employees and is funded by the brothers pooling their savings earned from their jobs and internships. Simmy and Jhai still don't take a salary and are determined to keep the business debt free by reinvesting profits.
