The Story Behind Meow² Kitchen: Ada and Zaria, Two Partners, One Shared Dream
When you pick up a piece of glassware from Meow² Kitchen, you’re not just holding a product—you’re holding years of experience, a shared love for home, and the quiet dream of two women who decided to build something meaningful together. This is our story. 🐾
Ada: From Legal and Heavy Machinery, to the Gentle Art of Glassware
Ada’s journey is one of unexpected turns, all guided by a deep curiosity and a commitment to excellence. With 4 years as a partner in a legal translation firm, she honed her eye for detail, precision, and trust—skills that would become the foundation of everything she does.
Seeking new challenges, she stepped into international trade, spending 5 years exporting heavy machinery: tower cranes, mixer trucks, concrete batching plants, and more. Year after year, she built relationships with clients across Algeria, the Philippines, and beyond, growing annual sales to over 6 million yuan. She learned the ins and outs of global logistics, quality control, and what it means to deliver on a promise—no matter how complex the product.
But as much as she thrived in the fast-paced world of industrial trade, her heart was always pulled toward something softer, closer to home. In 2020, she turned her focus entirely to glassware exports, drawn to the way these simple, clear objects could transform everyday moments. Then, in 2022, she took the leap to build something of her own: Meow² Kitchen.
For Ada, this brand is more than a business—it’s a return to what matters. She’s passionate about creating safe, beautiful glassware for homes, and when she’s not busy with the brand, you’ll find her supporting stray cat welfare, one small act of kindness at a time. She believes that the most meaningful work is rooted in care, whether it’s for a product, a client, or a life in need.
Zaria: From Engineering to Global Glassware Expertise
Zaria’s background brings the perfect balance of precision and passion to Meow² Kitchen. Starting her career as an engineer in the tech industry, she developed a sharp, analytical eye—breaking down complex problems, optimizing processes, and ensuring every detail works as it should.
But it was her move to the international trade department of a glassware company that ignited her true calling. As an export business manager, she mastered every part of the glassware supply chain: from sourcing the highest-quality materials to navigating international markets, she built a reputation for her expertise, reliability, and unwavering commitment to getting the job done right.
When she met Ada, they quickly realized they shared the same vision: to create a glassware brand that combines professional-grade quality with a warm, human touch. In 2022, they joined forces to launch Meow² Kitchen, with Zaria bringing her deep knowledge of the glassware industry and her ability to turn complex ideas into seamless, beautiful products.
Why This Partnership Works
They’re not just building a brand—they’re building a community of people who believe that everyday moments deserve to feel special. Every bowl, every jar, every cup you see here is the result of their combined experience, care, and the simple belief that good glassware can make life feel a little brighter.
We’re so glad you’re here, joining us on this journey.
