The Valleys family business selling samosas to the world

A Valleys-based samosa business has unveiled plans for a second factory on the back of growing orders both in the UK and overseas. Based in Pontyclun, SamosaCo was founded in 2009 by husband and wife team, Sokhy and Goldie Sandhu.

The couples' business story though started in Canada in the 1970s, when they first began selling samosas to customers from their grocery store in Toronto. The pair moved back to the UK in the 1980s, living in Reading before relocating to Cardiff in 1987 and opening numerous corner shops in the capital.

The business has proved so successful that the family are once again looking to expand. “The first shop was in Cowbridge Road East and then we opened a second shop in Cardiff Bay and then others in local areas, such as Cathays and Llandaff North,” said their son and operations director Tee Sandhu, who now runs the business with his parents.
