Built in Lagos,
for the way Africa eats.
Pakora Manufacturing Limited was founded with a simple frustration in mind: too many Nigerian food businesses were depending on inconsistent, expensive, imported packaging to serve a market that was changing faster than the supply chain could keep up with.
From street-side jollof joints to high-end caterers, from school kitchens to the fastest-growing food delivery brands in Lagos — every operator was wrestling with the same problem. Packaging would arrive late, in the wrong sizes, priced in a currency that kept moving, and rarely designed for the way food is actually served here.
We started Pakora to fix that. By manufacturing locally in Lagos, we cut out the multi-month lead times, the currency volatility, and the guesswork. We make kraft clamshell lunch boxes, paper bowls, paper cups, PET lids, plastic cutlery, custom-packaged cutlery sets, and retail-ready bundles — practical formats, made for the real conditions of Nigerian and African food service. Our in-house wrapping machine lets supermarkets and distributors sell our products in convenient 10, 20, or 30-piece packs.
Our goal is straightforward: help food businesses serve better, cleaner, and more professionally, with packaging that is durable, functional, affordable, and always available — locally.
Watch the line in motion.

A local answer to a local problem.
Pakora exists because Nigeria's food economy deserves a packaging partner that shows up — on time, on spec, and at the right price. That conviction is what built this factory, and it's what drives every roll, cup, and clamshell that leaves it.
