AN entrepreneur whose idea was rejected by Dragon’s Den has teamed up with a specialist world food company based in Parkeston.

Surya Foods is the co-owner of The Wild Peanut brand created by Akeem Ojuko having head-hunted him following his appearance on the show.

The 100 per cent natural, gourmet peanut butters are now sold in Harvey Nichols department stores across the country.

Surya Foods is now supporting The Wild Peanut brand with marketing, PR and helping them to secure key retail listings.

Managing Director Harry Dulai said: "We are delighted to add a gourmet touch with an innovative twist on a much-loved classic."
