Our alumni stand out for their entrepreneurial leadership and their desire to get ahead. Today, we want to highlight two of them, Jose Carlo Lapeira (class of 2011) and Valentina Lapeira (class of 2012), siblings, and the co-founders of "Tigre Comida China", a restaurant family business with delivery service, following the hidden kitchen model, which started back in 2018.
Hand in hand with digital platforms, they have managed to accelerate their growth and scale their operations both nationally and internationally. Currently, they serve approximately 10,000 orders per month and have more than 300 employees, which make their operations in Barranquilla, Bogotá, Medellín, Cali and Mexico City (Mexico) possible.
“We owe our great success to our family. Thanks to our union we have dreamed and managed to materialize and fulfill all our goals, both personally and professionally. Marymount influenced us in many ways. Honesty, commitment, persistence and social responsibility were values instilled in us at school from an early age and we are very grateful for that," says Valentina.
Recently, the Lapeira siblings were featured in the 19th edition of Forbes Colombia Magazine with their successful business. We wish them a prosperous journey!
