Today we’d like to introduce you to Shari Sanchez.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Shari. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
It all started off when I noticed I was packing a few pounds and decided to start eating healthier. After weeks of what I called “Eating Healthy” wasn’t working out for me, I decided to try a new method called The Keto Diet. Did some research and since I have a passion for cooking and new recipes, thought I would try it out. I became obsessed with it. I was getting insane results. Everyday I had a new recipe or two. I would post my food on Instagram and one day, a friend mentioned to me how she wished she could pay me to cook for her. That comment lit a light bulb in my head. After massive amounts of research, The Keto Kitchen Miami was born in January 2019.
Has it been a smooth road?
I underestimated the time it took to not only start a new business but a business that’s in the food industry. I feel like I was faced with a new challenge or struggle almost everyday in the beginning. I am also a mother to 3 beautiful children. It was difficult trying to be “That” mom and businesswoman at the same time.
Although I found the perfect commercial kitchen to cook at/it is only available during the night, forcing us to cook during the night shift hours. Everything changes in “night shift” life. It’s harder to find staff and if an emergency should occur, it only leaves us minutes to come up with a plan.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the The Keto Kitchen Miami story. Tell us more about the business.
The Keto Kitchen Miami is a meal delivery service that specializes in Keto meals. For those who do not know what Keto is – the ketogenic diet (or keto diet, for short) is a low-carb, high-fat diet that offers many health benefits. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. This reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis. You lose weight rapidly. We offer two types of plans, one of them which is our most popular plan is called Custom Keto – our Custom meal plan is customized to your personal caloric number. I get this number from them a specific questionnaire that I send to you. We measure all your meals to make sure 70% of your daily calories are put towards fat, 25% towards protein and 5% towards carbs. We offer five and seven-day programs. We cook fresh and deliver fresh daily.
I am most proud about its growth and most of all, results. I have had clients lose more than 60 pounds in a short period of time. Seeing clients get back their confidence is such a humbling experience. I am truly helping people and that feels great. What sets us apart from others is our results and quality of our food. Not only do we follow all standard rules and regulations when it comes to operating a meal delivery company, we always try to go the extra mile when it comes to satisfying the client. As stated before, we cook and deliver fresh daily. Everything we make is from scratch, from Keto breads to Keto sauces. It’s all made in~house.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
The sky’s the limit! I have a few projects that I am currently working on. One of them is called The Keto Kitchen’s Keto Kids Klub. I decided to sponsor some children and created a whole program for them. Their results are incredible! The fact that all of these amazing children have stuck to this diet during “ quarantine “ is phenomenal. I want to help more children. Seeing their faces light up when they see how much weight they have lost during the week gives me such an incredible feeling inside.
