​Helen Okpokowuruk, President of Comfort Foods LLC, had a dream to bring to the world community  authentic mouth-watering cuisines from Africa.

 

Helen says she is blessed to have in her heritage a pair of women who were extraordinarily good cooks: Her mother, Mrs. Rose Etuk, and her mother-in-law, Mrs. Josephine Okpok, both of blessed memory. Both women owned restaurants and had delicious recipes they had developed and perfected over the years.

 

​Although passionate about this dream, it took the constant urging and encouragement of her husband, Paul Okpokowuruk, to get her to take the big step of starting a business.

 

Paul believed that with Helen’s technical expertise and delicious recipes, she would be successful in sharing it with the world.

 

Helen has a degree in Food Engineering from Cornell University (Ithaca, NY) and has worked in food product development for Procter & Gamble Company and Frito-Lay, Inc.

 

Helen received further encouragement to start Comfort Foods LLC after hearing her Pastor, Dr. Noah Manyika, preach a series of messages titled “God bless the work of my hands.”

 

Comfort Foods LLC aspires to be the largest manufacturer of ready-to-eat, nutritious and wholesome foods and snacks from Africa.

 

We will continue to meet and surpass customer expectations in quality, convenience and customer service.
