Meet The Founder

A desire to keep Haitian culture alive through food, while helping busy families enjoy meaningful meals without the burden of daily meal preparation.

Gaëlle Lissade is the Founder and Creative Director of ALOUFA, a Haitian-Caribbean meal-prep company inspired by the vibrant flavors, warmth, and rhythm of Haitian home kitchens. A diplomat and global-affairs consultant by training, Gaëlle channels her deep love for Haiti into food — crafting meals that tell stories of resilience, belonging, and care.

Her culinary journey began as an act of nostalgia and evolved into a mission: to make authentic, nourishing, and time-friendly Haitian dishes accessible to modern families and professionals. Through ALOUFA, Gaëlle celebrates Haiti’s culinary legacy while creating opportunities for connection — at the dinner table and beyond.

Her vision extends beyond cuisine: each meal represents a bridge between culture and community, empowering women, honoring tradition, and sharing Haiti’s beauty with the world.

What started as a passion for preserving Haitian culinary traditions became a mission to share those traditions with a wider community through convenient, chef-prepared meals.
