Supporting Economic Growth, Afgan Explores Investment Opportunities in Culinary Business

Kapanlagi.com - Armed with a big name, a series of artists are now starting to venture into the business world. Like what Afgan Reza just did, where the 31-year-old singer chose to invest in a culinary business called Tahu Kriuk Galak.

Initially, Afgan received a sample of Tahu Kriuk Galak from a friend who was perfecting the recipe. After trying it, Afgan apparently immediately fell in love with it. He is convinced that the product will be in high demand by the public, so he decided to invest.

"Tahu Kriuk Galak is a business system that creates various opportunities for people to generate additional income, which ultimately supports positive economic growth and improves welfare during the pandemic," said the singer of the song Terima Kasih Cinta (Thank You Love).

As is known, in this pandemic era, many people have to be willing to lose their jobs. Afgan believes that the culinary business he is running can also help create job opportunities for those in need.

"I hope that it can create both job opportunities and become a choice for workers who want to have a side business or additional income," he explained.

This franchise business offers fried tofu snacks that have long been a favorite snack in Indonesia. With careful attention to raw materials and operating standards, Tahu Kriuk Galak serves quality snacks without compromising the familiar taste on the tongues of local culinary enthusiasts.

In addition to the different spicy flavors and seasonings, the raw materials of Tahu Kriuk Galak have food safety certification and are formulated to have a longer shelf life. This ensures that the product quality is maintained (not stale) and the development of outlets will not be hindered by the distance from the central branch.

"Tahu Kriuk Galak started from a big dream to present the best crispy tofu dish by the nation's children for the taste of various groups. And it was built to open up broad business opportunities for the Indonesian people. The journey of Tahu Kriuk Galak began from the founders' love for Tahu Kriuk and the innovative recipe that was then developed," explained Edwin Ariono, the owner of the business.

This MSME, established in 2019, also has a business model that makes it easy for people to start a business with a trademark, sales and promotion system, and trading equipment provided by Tahu Kriuk Galak. In addition, the concept of takeaway makes it easier for entrepreneurs to start a business without a large location.
