and then persuaded her husband to leave corporate life and join her running the family business. Since then the Giggling Squid has grown. There are now 21 Giggling Squids employing around 400 people across 13 counties. having completed its first private equity funding round in 2015, Giggling Squid is measured by many as the largest Thai restaurant brand in the UK.
