Team
Simply Soup is backed by a small group of talented, fun-loving, and very dedicated people.
We call ourselves the Simply Soupers.
A few years ago, we sat down and decided what values we wanted to live by as a team:
Respect
We always treat each other with respect.
Honesty
We always remain honest, no matter how difficult it is for us to say or hear something.
Patience
We are patient and treat each other with understanding.
Acceptance
We accept that each of us has a different character. We love our differences as much as our commonalities.
Trust
In every situation, we trust that we all give our best.
Assem – Founder and Owner
As she likes to put it, Assem is responsible for drinking coffee, sitting around all day, and doing nothing.
Julia – General Manager
Julia’s job is to make sure everything runs smoothly. She is our go-to person when the S*%& hits the fan.
Joelis – Marketing Manager
Joelis makes sure everyone knows when we have a great new salad dressing! And yes, she’s the woman behind the camera who catches our staff dancing or acting silly 😉
Tomas – Chef
Tomas is the main reason why we all have something healthy and delicious to eat 🙂
Vali – Store Manager Hallwylstrasse
Vali is famous for her expression “easy”. Relaxed and easygoing, she gets her job done in no time, always with a smile on her face.
Kayo – Store Manager Pelikanstrasse
A mix of Japanese efficiency and Swiss politeness – Kayo manages our store on Pelikanstrasse with absolute precision and care! Stop by and say hello!
Prim - Kalkbreite Store Manager
Prim moves like a panther, graceful and swift. She will be our new Store Manager at Kalkbreite from late 2025!

Irene is as cheerful and charming as they come. Originally from Italy, she not only brings her irresistible Italian accent but also the humor we all need to get through the week!
