Raija Sunell started her Arnolds career already in 1996 as an employee and completely fell in love with the café world. When the possibility arose to own her own café at the end of the 1990’s, she excitedly jumped at the opportunity. “When people are amazed at my long career here, I say to them: where else would I go every day?” Raija says.
Raija’s Arnolds years as a franchisee have contained ups and downs but her outgoing personality and entrepreneurial spirit have helped her to carry on. She has a unique journey behind her and those memories are guaranteed to always put a huge smile on her face.
Over the years the product range has expanded hugely, which is, in Raija’s opinion, a great thing. Her own favourite is a white-chocolate coated Raspberry Jammy. She doesn’t always have time to have a donut when work gets busy, but when she really feels like having a treat, the combination of jam and chocolate is perfect, Raija says.
