Founder & Restaurant Growth Consultant

Hamza Ukani
Concept, feasibility and growth: the decisions that settle whether a restaurant survives its second year.
Hamza started CulinaPro after years of watching well-funded restaurants open beautifully and close quietly. The pattern was almost never the food. It was a lease signed before the maths, a kitchen designed around the seating plan, and a menu nobody had costed.
He leads concept work, feasibility and growth planning. On most engagements he is the one asking the uncomfortable question in the first meeting: what return do you actually need, and does this location support it?
He also runs audits and rescue work for restaurants that are already open and struggling, and stays with clients after launch to plan the next outlet.
What he owns: discovery, feasibility models, concept and kitchen planning, restaurant audits and rescue, growth planning, and the client relationship from first call to handover.
