MyLahore was started in Bradford in 2002 from humble beginnings by cousins Asghar Ali and Shakoor Ahmed. At the time, Asghar ... was working in a bank while Shakoor was just starting out at Bradford University. With help from family and friends, they initially set up MyLahore as a way to finance Shakoor’s studies and support their families. Fast forward and today MyLahore is an iconic multi-site restaurant and catering business that employs over 450 people from around 27 different nationalities. It is still family-run and has restaurants in Bradford, Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham with London coming soon. MyLahore is rooted in Yorkshire in a world of small kitchens yet huge hearts, where families tuck into everything from samosas to shepherd’s pie, and karahis to cornflake tarts – it’s a very British Asian story that just had to be shared! Inspired to build on the pioneering migrant spirit of generations that came before them, community and togetherness have always been at the heart of MyLahore. The business prides itself on championing local people and local causes and welcoming all with open arms to a kitchen filled with love. read more
