J’Oli Co-Founder Jean Paul Cascun welcomed the launch of its first international franchise, in the Cypriot city of Paphos, as a “very proud moment”.

“What started as an idea in Malta has now taken its first step beyond our shores, and seeing the J’Oli brand grow internationally is something we are incredibly proud of,” Mr Cascun said. 

“A huge welcome to Vasko & Channy to the J’Oli family. Wishing you both every success on this exciting journey. This is only the beginning.”

J’Oli was founded in 2013 by Mr Cascun and Oliver Borg, and it currently has four local outlets – in St Julian’s, Msida, Marsa, and Mosta.

The Paphos outlet was launched by Maltese national Chantelle Mifsud, who is also Partner of the Cypriot real estate firm Euphestia, and her partner Vasko Stoyanof.

Ms Mifsud told MaltaCEOs.mt in July that she is already planning on expanding the J’Oli franchise across Cyprus, with Limassol up next.
