From a young girl who found joy in baking, May Gulapat became the head of a vast corporation that spans various dessert and beverage businesses in Thailand and the region. Fresh out of university, she published a series of dessert cookbooks titled "May Made" and, in 2007, opened a dessert café that introduced the now-renowned Shibuya Honey Toast. The café became an instant hit, and today, with 40 branches around town, customers still eagerly wait in line for a table. This entrepreneurial journey didn't stop with After You. May expanded her business empire to include Mikka café and bakery, Japanese-style shaved ice shop Maygori, and Song Wat Coffee & Roasters. Demonstrating her commitment to supporting community orchards, she opened Luggaw fruit café, sourcing fruit directly from growers and offering cut fruit with dips and designer fruit frappés. In 2016, May joined Food4Good, a company supplying food for foundations like Baan Nokkamin Foundation, the Foundation for Children with Disabilities, and Sahathai Foundation. The same year, May took her company public. In 2019, Bloomberg recognized it as the "best-performing restaurant stock worldwide for operators with market values of at least $300 million."
