More about Eric Thomas Dee
Eric Thomas Dee is both COO of his family’s Foodee Global Concepts and co-founder of Kraver’s Canteen, a trailblazing cloud kitchen concept in the Philippines.
Over 30 years ago, Eric Thomas Dee’s father Rikki Dee put up a restaurant called Chin Chin along Pasay Road. In the decades that followed, that small business would grow to become Foodee Global Concepts—a company that now includes food court brands as well as more upscale casual dining brands like Mesa, Bench Cafe, Sunnies Cafe, and Todd English Food Hall, Tim Ho Wan, Hawker Chan, Tsuta, and Kam’s Roast. Today, the younger Dee has grown into the business as its COO, running things alongside his father, who is CEO.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"I have evolved from role of Community Builder to Startup Consultant to Startup Ecosystem Enabler to Angel Investor and now launching a Venture Studio and eChai has been a catalyst in my overall journey as Startup Evangelist since 13 years."

Co-Founder at Counselvise & Ivy Growth
"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
