By mid-2012 it was an African supermarket called Cosco, occupying two adjoining shopfronts at 64 and 66 London Road <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6781171277/ photo]</small>, but in early 2012 it gave up number 66 to [[Kodo's Barber, 66 London Road|Kodo's Barber]]. In early 2013, it changed its name from Cosco <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/6895706484/ photo]</small> to African Food Centre, though little else seemed to change. As of January 2012, the frontage advertised African, Afro-Caribbean, and Asian groceries, along with halal meat, fish, grocery, fruit & veg, and bakery. The butcher's counter was definitely still there in April 2012. </div> <div class="last_verified">Existence last checked in December 2013.</div> |

Supermarket on London Road. There's a butcher's counter too.
As well as a fresh vegetable display out the front photo, they also sell various frozen greens; names noted in November 2012 were fumbua eru leaves, ogou leaves, and biiteku-tek folon leaves. There was also a freezer full of different sizes of tilapia fish.
