KINGSTON, Jamaica — Soup King, a beloved local brand, made a triumphant return on Saturday at Market Place, located at 67 Constant Spring Road. To mark the occasion, the establishment offered free soup to its patrons during the grand reopening event. Adrian Wilson, co-owner of Soup King, expressed his enthusiasm for the relaunch, stating, ‘Soup King is a brand I’ve had before, but we’ve relaunched, and today is the day to do a grand sampling for all our customers, new and old. We’ve given away 500 soups and are just hanging out and vibing with our customers.’
The event drew both loyal and new customers, many of whom shared their excitement. One long-time patron reminisced, ‘This isn’t my first time at Soup King. I used to visit them when they were on Lynders Road. I’m having the seafood fiesta, which is my favorite soup. If you haven’t tried Soup King yet, you’re missing out.’ Another customer, a self-proclaimed soup enthusiast, added, ‘I’m a soup man. Sometimes I boil a pot of soup and freeze it for later. When I come here and find their chicken soup and shrimp soup, which taste amazing, I’ll be coming back repeatedly.’
The relaunch not only celebrated the return of a cherished local business but also reinforced the community’s love for Soup King’s offerings. The event was a vibrant gathering of old and new customers, all united by their appreciation for good soup and good company.
