It’s been a hard year for everyone, but we’re delighted to share a happy story as we all emerge from lockdown…

Last year Aleandro, CEO of Food Fusion 95, wanted to take his business mobile, and came to us for help converting his van into a food trailer. Working with sister company Raccoon, we produced a bespoke kitchen fit-out on the inside, while they helped him establish his brand on the exterior.

Today he launches his regular street food pitch outside Canada Water station, serving delicious Caribbean dishes to lucky Londoners (we personally recommend the jerk chicken!)
Congratulations Aleandro, we’re excited at what the future holds for you! 🚀
