Our Story

In the heart of Manchester, Omakase by Cupid was born from a passion for culinary excellence and a mission to bridge diverse cultures through food. Our story begins with the simple belief that everyone, regardless of background or dietary needs, deserves access to the finest ingredients to create extraordinary dishes. As pioneers, we are proud to be the first company in the UK to import Halal-certified seafood and Asian ingredients, empowering chefs, restaurants, and home cooks to craft sushi, stir-fries, and more—tension-free and with complete confidence.
Rooted in Think GG Cash & Carry, located at Unit 2, Velo Business Park, 2 Bellevue Avenue, Longsight, Manchester, we’ve built on its vibrant marketplace ethos to deliver quality and trust. Backed by over 25 years of expertise from Cupid Trading Limited, our global sourcing network ensures every product we offer—be it sashimi-grade seafood, traditional Asian staples, or specialty items—meets rigorous standards, from Halal certification to internationally recognized quality benchmarks. At Omakase by Cupid, we don’t just supply ingredients; we inspire culinary journeys, fostering creativity in kitchens across the UK and beyond. Join us, and let’s make every meal a celebration of flavor, culture, and inclusivity.
