Our Story
Ambas Foods began not as a business, but as a response to a moment of need. In April 2020, during the first COVID-19 lockdown, supermarket shelves across the country were empty and many vulnerable members of our community struggled to access even the most basic groceries. At the time, we had a family warehouse in Nelson filled with storage, equipment, and unused space.
Instead of watching our community struggle, we decided to act. In a corner of that warehouse loading bay—surrounded by old forklifts, rolls of cloth, and forgotten storage—we began clearing space each morning. Day by day we created room to stack crates of fresh vegetables brought directly from St James Market in Bradford. We sold everything at cost price. No profit. No loss. Simply helping people get the food they needed. For nearly three months, Ambas Foods was not a business. It was an act of service.

Founder's Message

When we started Ambas Foods in 2020, we never imagined a small effort to help our community would grow into what it is today. What began in a warehouse corner has become a place where families come not just to shop, but to feel welcomed. Built on honesty, fairness, and community service, our goal is simple: to grow alongside the community that supported us from the very beginning.

Thank you for being part of our journey.
