TORONTO & BOCA RATON, Fla. - ColoradoDesk -- In the midst of a seismic shift in the food services industry due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a newly launched live video network provides a simple way for food and beverage industry professionals to earn money through connecting with audiences of food lovers.

FOODIEZ.LIVE, powered by ONVIVA Broadcasting Corporation, is a live video network that allows chefs, cooks, restaurateurs, bartenders, mixologists, sommeliers, foodies and cooking schools to price, schedule, promote and deliver live streaming broadcasts and video calls to audiences of any size.

"COVID-19 forced me to look for new ways to earn income, since my work in the food services business has been greatly reduced," says Andrew Carter co-founder Chefs Night At Home. "FOODIEZ.LIVE gives me a direct way to monetize my culinary expertise."

By joining the network, content creators with culinary talents, skills and expertise can get paid directly for their live video content and begin building their following, opening new revenue streams from the comfort of their own home or professional kitchen.
