Story of Miss Bunty Bano

Happy to share that one of our trainees Miss Bunty Bano from IIFL (India Infoline Group) Foundation supported Hospitality Chef Trade Training in Kupwara, Kashmir (Batch 1) has opened her own restaurant, New Sky Cafe and Restaurant, making her the first woman in the area to do so.




She first started working as an Executive Chef at Food Villa Hawal, Srinagar after completing the training, and assessment based on curriculum by The Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) Tata STRIVE. The experience at her first job helped her to get the motivation to start something of her own.



This is a proud moment for all of us, especially considering that she used to travel 25 kilometers daily to reach the training center. 🍽️👩‍🍳🌟


She now becomes a role model for other trainees, and would guide and empower them through her experiences as an entrepreneur and an employer.


We at REACHA look forward to continue to strengthen the local communities in Kashmir with IIFL Foundation and with Indian Army's guidance.
