If you have ever had the joy (or the frustration!) of buying in the food and drinks  to self cater for your/relative’s wedding, then taking it to store at your mum’s house in many trips, and then taking it to all the ladies round London who would be cooking it and then getting it to the reception venue in coolers and trays in one piece, and wondered why there wasn’t an online shop option like Sainsbury’s, then wonder no more!

Avila UK is a Sydenham, London based online African Caribbean food shopping platform working with already established food retailers in the UK to take the hassle out of shopping. They have over 1,000 products – you order online and it is delivered in a refrigerated van! No more dragging a 20kg bag of rice through Peckham High Street! Yay!
