YOUR HEALTH MATTERS TO US
Research has shown that South Africa is one of the most unhealthiest countries in the world. Non-Communicable diseases (NCDs) stand as the primary global cause of mortality, comprising 51% of all fatalities in South Africa. Examples of NCDs encompass cardiovascular diseases (CVD), diabetes, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases, with cardiovascular issues being the predominant factor in NCD-related mortality rates. The close correlation between these diseases and unhealthy eating habits, particularly an excessive intake of salt, is noteworthy.
ARTÉ FOUNDER - ANDULELA SUKA
Andulela Suka is a hospitality entrepreneur, strategist, and youth development advocate with both local and international industry
experience. She has a strong Food & Beverage brand that offers the following: :
– A healthy, contemporary coffee shop concept
– Large-scale corporate and institutional catering
– Event hospitality services
– Student internship training and mentorship programs
Arte began operating at the University of Johannesburg’s Arts & Culture precinct, where it served lecturers, students, and visiting
guests while simultaneously becoming a training ground for emerging hospitality professionals. Through partnerships and
internship placements, the business has contributed to skills development in kitchen operations, barista training, customer service,
stock control, and hospitality management.
Under Andulela’s leadership, Arte has catered for events ranging from intimate executive meetings to large-scale gatherings
exceeding several hundred guests. The brand has positioned itself as a provider of quality, healthy menu alternatives delivered
with operational excellence.
Now entering its next phase, Arte is repositioning beyond campus operations into a broader lifestyle and experiential hospitality
brand — with expansion plans that include a standalone venue in Johannesburg, offering curated dining experiences, wine tastings,
tranquil event spaces, and boutique-style hospitality offerings.
Andulela’s vision is to build Arte into a sanctuary-style hospitality brand known for excellence, warmth, healthy living, and
intentional service — while continuing to develop young professionals within the industry.
Her approach blends international service standards, strategic business management, community development, and African-rooted
hospitality.
