Meet Our Founder - Edna Richardson

Welcome to Black Foodies Travel – a world where culinary adventures and cultural experiences blend seamlessly. I'm Edna Richardson, the heart and soul behind this journey.

Born and raised in the rich cultural tapestry of Louisiana, I've always been captivated by the power of food to tell a story, connect communities, and create unforgettable experiences. With over 20 years in the social work field, including 11 years as a licensed social worker, I've dedicated my life to understanding and enriching the human experience. This journey led me to my true passion: culinary travel.

In 2021, I embarked on a mission to bring together like-minded African American food enthusiasts to explore the world's diverse culinary landscapes. Black Foodies Travel is the culmination of this vision – a travel company that specializes in customized international group travel, offering unique, immersive food experiences for the vibrant, fun- loving Black foodie.

As a proud wife and mother of three, family is at the core of everything I do. This personal touch is reflected in each travel itinerary, ensuring that our trips aren't just vacations, but a home away from home.

My goal? To be your guru for international group foodie travel. I am deeply committed to guiding fellow Black foodies on extraordinary adventures across the globe. Looking ahead, I envision Black Foodies Travel evolving into a leading enterprise, dedicated to empowering and connecting our community through exceptional culinary experiences.

Join me on this delicious journey and let's savor every moment, one destination at a time!
