Where to find African groceries in the UK (besides us)
We love sending parcels, but sometimes you want to walk into a shop and pick your own scotch bonnets. Here is where we send our own friends and family when they ask.
In London, head to Peckham High Street for general African groceries, Ridley Road in Dalston for cheap produce, and Walthamstow for excellent halal frozen meats.
In Birmingham, Soho Road has a long stretch of well-stocked African and Caribbean shops. In Manchester, Cheetham Hill is the go-to. In Leeds, try Harehills.
Outside the big cities, look for Nigerian-owned restaurants โ they often have a small shop attached, or will tell you which van does the regional delivery run.
And of course, when nobody is nearby and you need stockfish in a hurry, we will bring it to you.
