About Us

Learn about our story of how Big Do started, from the trials and tribulations to most recent successes.

Fresh food, fresh ideas.

How it started during Covid-19 lockdown

Our founder, Ernest Tetteh, conceived the idea for Big Do during the COVID-19 lockdown. Frustrated with being cooped up indoors, Ernest decided to spread joy by delivering delicious Ghanaian food to locals. As restrictions eased, Ernest purchased a bus to cater directly to people, offering cozy meals onboard and then dropping them back home.

Local Support

With the support of the Waltham Forest Council's Regeneration Town team and BIPC team, Ernest secured a prime location in the Church Lane Car Park, just a stone's throw from Leytonstone station. This convenient spot allows passing commuters to indulge in authentic West African cuisine with ease.

Since the summer of 2023, Big Do has been serving the community with dedication and passion. And now, we're gearing up for an official launch this spring, opening our doors to even more Londoners eager to experience the true taste of West African food and hospitality.

Big Do, Big Plans

But we're not stopping there. Ernest has big plans to expand into four other surrounding towns in East London, ensuring that not only West African Londoners but all local communities can savour the flavours of Africa and experience true hospitality.

In our commitment to sustainability, we're also planning to make our business eco-friendly by installing solar panels, ensuring that our operations have a minimal impact on the environment.

Ernest and his team can't wait to welcome you aboard the Big Do food bus in Leytonstone. Come down and experience the true taste of West African cuisine – we promise a culinary journey you won't soon forget.
