World food supermarket opens in Harrogate today

A supermarket stocking a range of international cuisines has opened its doors in Harrogate today.

All Nations Supermarket on Skipton Road sells a wide variety of Asian, African, Middle Eastern and European foods and ingredients — the first of its kind in the town.

The store also has a butchers counter selling fresh meat and stocks halal foods too.

Owner Amjad Ali, who lives in Leeds but is originally from Kurdistan, told the Stray Ferret he decided to open in Harrogate due to a high demand for ethnic foods in the town.



Mr Ali said:

"I’d visited the area a few times.
"When I found the unit, I posted on Facebook to get a flavour of whether people would want a world food store and I got a great response.
"I knew then that the town wanted these foods."


The store stocks the TikTok viral Buldak products, as well as a range of Asian spices, Middle Eastern desserts and even fresh fruit and vegetables.

The store boasts a large amount of Asian noodles and ramen dishes.



The shop has received a positive response on social media. One person commented it would save them going to Leeds to find something similar.

Mr Ali continued:

"We only opened this morning but the response from people has been absolutely incredible.
"I’m so happy and I feel so excited for the future."


All Nations Supermarket is open seven days a week from 8am to 9pm.
