Wellness Cafe set to open outlet at Mymensingh

Bangladesh homegrown coffee shop brand Wellness Cafe expected to open its outlet at Mymensingh as soon as possible or next month.  

Now they have total of 16 outlets, including Gulshan, Mirpur Road,  Mohammadpur, Malibagh, Uttara and Narayanganj, says a press release.

Wellness Cafe is a brand endeavor by Wellness Venture, founded by Parisha Shamim in 2022.  
Parisha Shamim, an Architect, Director of Labaid Group and Managing Director of Wellness Ventures, dreams of opening at least fifty outlet of Wellness Cafe in Bangladesh.  

During the Covid-19 pandemic, she started toying with the idea of launching a cafe to provide healthy and quality food for the people visiting Labaid.

It started its journey by opening outlet in Dhanmondi serving coffee, fresh juice, savoury and dessert items. Once the cafes started receiving positive feedback, Wellness Cafe expanded the outlets, beginning with the Gulshan one.

Mymensingh outlets will be launched soon, as the projects are already underway. The vision for 2024 includes expanding to Sylhet and Barisal.

Wellness Cafe outlets usually follow three operation models - express, cafe, and bistro. The express model cafe outlets typically deal with customers who are in a rush and need a quick bite.

The cafe model outlets offer a cosy environment where customers can sit and enjoy coffee and other food alone or while hanging out with friends.

The cafe outlets, however, have different capacities to accommodate customers. For example, the Dhanmondi outlet, a tiny cafe beside Mirpur Road, has four seats for customers. The Malibagh one, on the other hand, can accommodate more than 20 customers at a time.

The most distinguishing factor about Wellness Cafe is it is built around its own agro. They produce all the ingredients, especially chicken, beef, eggs and such, that they use for their food items, on this farm.

Another thing that sets Wellness Cafe apart is its attempt to be known as a Bangladeshi homegrown coffee brand.

The Wellness Cafe does not use plastic unless it is absolutely necessary. They sell more than a thousand cups of coffee and thousands of plates of food daily, all served in paper cups and plates, aiming to serve the customers the best quality food and beverages in the greenest possible way.

Wellness Venture also has three unique restaurants Zen, Brunch at Bailey and Garden Bistro.
