DrKSuya & Daughters Ltd
We are a UK-based food production company specialising in premium, ready-to-heat West African meals. Founded by Abid, DrKSuya has evolved from a small home operation into a fully equipped, scalable production facility in Wembley, London.
"We are not a restaurant or takeaway; we are a production company with controlled processes, technical equipment, and a nationwide customer base."
Our mission is simple yet ambitious: to deliver the vibrant, authentic flavours of Lagos to the UK diaspora without compromise, all while maintaining the rigorous safety and consistency standards expected of a modern British manufacturer.
Precision meets Passion.

Abid Badiru is the Chief Recipe Architect and founder of DrKSuya & Daughters Ltd, a modern diaspora food company built at the intersection of culture, engineering, and culinary innovation. With a background in systems thinking and process design, Abid approaches food the way an engineer approaches complex machinery — with structure, precision, and a deep respect for the craft.
Raised on the flavours, rituals, and storytelling of West African cuisine, Abid has spent years translating heritage recipes into scalable, high‑consistency products that honour tradition while meeting the demands of modern production. His work blends cultural authenticity with technical discipline, ensuring that every product is engineered for flavour, safety, and repeatability.
As Chief Recipe Architect, Abid leads the design of all recipes, production systems, and quality frameworks within the business. He oversees the transformation of raw cultural knowledge into commercially viable products, building processes that preserve the soul of the food while enabling growth, efficiency, and operational excellence.
