More Than a Mart. A Movement

Rooted in heritage, designed for the modern shopper, and built for the Orpington community.

Tayos’ Afro-Mart is Orpington’s primary large-scale Afro-Caribbean grocery store, bringing you more than food, shelves and baskets. We’re proud to set a new standard for how shopping should look and feel. At Tayos’, you’ll find everything under one roof: homeware and hair care essentials, your favourite pantry staples, quality meats & dish, assortments of ready meals, and our in-store Deli — all carefully chosen to bring both quality and value.

From the freshness of our food to the warmth of our service, we’ve thought about every detail. For our customers, we’ve created a shopping environment that boldly celebrates Afro-Caribbean heritage in a way that is welcoming and enjoyable for all. Our winning formula? The perfect blend of excellence, authenticity and convenience.

Shopping at Tayos’ is not just a routine task or a chore —it’s an experience. We’re building a trusted community hub that honours legacy, while offering something fresh, modern, and lasting for Orpington and beyond

Food,
Culture,
Community

Tayo’s is the "One-Stop-Shop" where culture, food, and community intersect. We understand that life in the UK is fast-paced, which is why we’ve gathered everything you need—pantry staples, an in-house butcher, a fresh fishmonger, and a hot deli—under one aesthetic and organized roof.

We are more than a store; we are a hub for education and connection. Whether it's through our charity drives, cultural celebrations, or simply a recipe tip shared over the butcher’s counter, we are here to ensure you don’t just shop—you belong.

Redefining the Culture. Rewriting the Experience

We’re moving beyond the "corner shop" cliché. At Tayo's, we believe Afro-Caribbean heritage deserves a stage that is as vibrant, clean, and premium as the culture itself.

Aesthetic by Design: Say goodbye to cluttered aisles and dim lighting. We’ve designed a 6,000-square-foot flagship that is spacious, modern, and beautifully organized. This is shopping as it should be.
Service with Pride: We are dismantling the "bad experience" stereotype. Our team is trained to offer a warm, expert welcome—because a "Touch of Home" means feeling respected and served with excellence.
The 'Lit' Culture: Afro-Caribbean culture is electric. From our curated soundtracks to our aesthetic displays, we are showcasing the "Chop Life" lifestyle—a celebration of joy, flavor, and modern elegance.
