Meet Alisha
In 2021, I set out to be the first person to make açai accessible in the heart of Manchester City.
2 weeks later Açaí & The Tribe was created.
After turning 23 & completing a Law masters, it took me 4 years to realise that being the creative foodie I am, law wasn't for me.
Having travelled around & always having easy access to açai, it only highlighted just how inaccessible açai was in Manchester... and that whenever I came home, I couldn't get my hands on it.
Therefore, I wanted to make açai as accessible & affordable as possible, without compromising on quality. That is why here at Açai & The Tribe, we source the most premium, purest & creamiest açai, straight form the Amazon Jungle.
It is fair to say I achieved what I set out to do, with hundreds of bowls leaving the shop week on week. Starting off as a small market stall, a year later we have moved into our own space in the heart of Manchester, with the best team & customers I could have only dreamt for.
P.S. - my go to açai bowl is our classic bowl, with added chopped dates & hazelnut butter - Always.
