Since 1997: Flavors of Asia & the Caribbean in East Ham.

Since 1997: Flavors of Asia & the Caribbean in East Ham.

In 1997, our journey began in the heart of East Ham with a simple mission: to create a store where cultures meet and flavors thrive. What started as a small family-run shop has grown into a trusted community hub for authentic Asian and Afro-Caribbean products, loved by generations.

Over the years, we’ve expanded beyond groceries to offer a wide range of spirits, wines, and soft drinks – perfect for celebrations, gatherings, and everyday enjoyment.

More than just a shop, we are a reflection of the vibrant diversity around us. Over the decades, we’ve seen children who once shopped with their parents return with their own families – and that generational bond is what makes us special. We are not just a store; we’re part of East Ham’s story.  Families who first visited in the 90s still come through our doors, now with their children, making our store a true part of East Ham’s story.

Our promise remains simple,

 Celebrate culture through food & drink,
 Deliver quality and variety for every taste,
 Stay rooted in the community that made us.

For over two decades, we’ve been more than a store – we’ve been your neighborhood connection to home, tradition, and togetherness.
