Just as we identified Nashville as a growing market to explode 10 years ago and Tampa four years ago, we are confident Detroit is about to go on an outstanding growth run the world won’t see coming and Sunda wants to contribute and be part of it all,” said Billy Dec, CEO/Founder, Sunda New Asian. “The restaurant scene in Detroit has experienced exponential growth over the last few years.
