Busy schedules are forcing Americans everywhere to compromise the quality of their meals for convenience. Today, consumers are craving healthier and more casual options over traditional fast food concepts like burgers and pizza. Uncle Sharkii is giving the people what they want: fusions of exotic flavors, fresh, organic ingredients, and a simple menu to keep customers satisfied and on the go!
From humble beginnings, Uncle Sharkii is the brainchild of Raymond & Fenny. Fenny is a tenacious, funny, and hip girl from Hunan, China, while Raymond is a laid-back native Hawaiian who exemplifies all aspects of “chill.” Despite being born into different worlds, it seems like fate pushed Fenny and Raymond towards each other. In 2017, they both owned and operated a small, brick-and-mortar ice cream store together.
After a year, Fenny wanted to shake things up and introduce a menu item that stems from her husband’s heritage: the poke bowl. Given the chilled environment of an ice cream shop, it was a seamless transition. What began as a trickle of curiosity from their regulars grew to huge waves of demands from newcomers!
With a purpose to serve the people with “poke bowls made simple,” Fenny’s new concept bore potential for huge growth. All she needed was a unique brand.
