Hello, we are The International Culinary Union.
Our 3 Golden “Aims” are;
… to make the biggest chef union in Europe and in the world.
… and give a chance, to everyone to be a part of this union.
… and to help all the chefs, to be part of the International competitions world-wide.
Our Mission:
The ICU wants to make the biggest community of cooking enthusiasts, junior and senior chefs from all over the world.
We want everybody to have the same rights, everybody to have a possibility to become a Regional Chairman, Vice President or President. This Union is created from chefs, for chefs. We know that everyone wants to be a President of some type of association, but it is challenging because those positions are overloaded with people who created those unions.
But here it's different, here everyone can achieve that status because we appreciate you when you “work” for the ICU and it does not matter weather you are a beginner or you have not done anything like this before, if you follow our steps and help us, we will reward you, and you will not be far away from that President title.
We help our Members with providing knowledge, help to gain popularity, to become a professional chef, free advice from our lawyer, and last but not least we help with up to 100% of costs, when members participate in the international competitions.
There are chefs that are dreaming of having their own culinary books, and we help our members to be a part of one unique culinary book, which is the ICU best competition recipe book.
It's just the beginning, and we are looking for the professional people/chefs who will help us to grow this Union and for it to get bigger and bigger.
Our target growth is approximately 3%-7%, and we want it to increase in the next 10 years by double of that.
