Fatoumata Diallo's Linkedin Analytics

Hello I hope you find resilience, purpose, and proof that transformation often starts in our toughest moments. I’m Fatoumata Diallo, the founder and CEO of Gamaal Ltd. My journey has been anything but linear. 𝗔 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 February 2023 changed everything, At that time, I lost my job. I was housing and food insecure. As a mother, I had no choice but to push forward. I was faced with two options. One, find another job or to build something of my own. The decision was clear. Armed with vision and determination, I immersed myself in research. Fear was real. But my mission was more real, and it was to create something bigger. 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗮𝗹 It's a movement rooted in purpose and faith. Gamaal was born not just a platform but a transformation. At Gamaal, we celebrate home-cooked meals as stories, culture, social impact, and economic empowerment. We help home cooks, especially women turn their culinary skills into financial independence. Why should an Asian mother hesitate to try West African food? Why shouldn’t a West African household explore Middle Eastern flavors? 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀.
