Authentic Italian Without Pork or Wine? Positano Risto’s Twist

In this episode of Open For Business, we speak with Imran Abdullah, Co-Founder and Group CEO of Positano Risto, a muslim-friendly Italian dining experience inspired by the Amalfi Coast.

Launched in Singapore in 2017, Positano Risto has since expanded to Kuala Lumpur, bringing authentic Italian flavours to the region while priding itself on being muslim friendly. Imran shares the journey behind the brand’s creation, the challenge of balancing authentic Italian tastes with muslim-friendly requirements, and Positano Risto’s expansion plans.

Tune in to learn about Imran’s vision, his unique approach to the F&B industry, and the strategies guiding Positano Risto’s future growth.
