West Ealing is fresh Welcome to the new-look 2-in-1 back-to-back ‘Contactus Ealing/ Ealing Homebiz’. This issue we’re exploring the shops and services in West Ealing W13.

So, what is West Ealing like?

Its main claim to fame has to be as the fresh produce capital of Ealing: from the flower stall in Melbourne Avenue to the fruit and vegetable stands at the Cudi International Food Centre, and of course the Leeland Road Farmers Market, one of the longest-running in London.

All the big supermarket chains have branches here too – Lidl, Morrisons, Tesco and Waitrose – selling even more food.

With so much talk about town centre regeneration, and plans for a business improvement district, not to mention Crossrail coming soon, there’s a lot to look forward to in W13.

Thanks for ‘shopping by’.

‘We all worked in the Wimpy’

G

onul Ali remembers coming over on the boat from Cyprus, aged just four, with her two siblings, mum and grandmother, to meet her father, Nail, who was already in the UK. Youngest brother Ali Nail was born last; he now owns nine businesses between Ealing and Ruislip, including the Hair and Beauty store on the corner of Uxbridge Road and Broomfield Road.

“We moved into the Ealing area 43 years ago, when my dad bought the Wimpy bar across the road,” says Gonul, who also manages the Genesis hair salon next door to Hair and Beauty. “We all worked in the Wimpy – in those days there were no fast food outlets, so we always had queues of

people waiting to get in.”

The Wimpy is now an estate agents, and the family has held on to a lot of property in the area. Gonul’s mum still lives in Gordon Road.

“When we first moved to West Ealing, it was lovely,” Gonul recalls. “The green was there, the shops near Taste of Lahore were good, there was a little diner there... the legendary Rowse’s department store was opposite where Iceland is, then we had M&S, Woolworths...

“I love going to Cudi. He’s open 24 hours – do you know why? It doesn’t make sense for him to put away all the produce every night. He has everything in there: butchers, bakers, deli, Polish shop, Turkish food, as well as the fresh produce.”

So what does West Ealing need now? “It needs all these vacant shops to be filled,” says Gonul. “We have so many food places, discount stores and a lot of hairdressers.

“If we want people coming here, we have to have more shops.”

like the products that you get from the farm, the quality is higher. In West Ealing, I come to shop in Sainsbury’s, and the Pound Shop, which is good for craft supplies for the children.”

POLL We asked 16 businesses in West Ealing to estimate the percentage of West Ealing residents among their customers. Most said 20-30 per cent, except for Bagel and Shake and Candy Cars, who said 60 per cent.

With sporting attention turned to the winter Olympics at Sochi, Haven Lane-based expert Greg Bagley of W5 Physio doesn’t think we need to get over-worried about the physical danger Greg Bagley of some of the sports shown on tv.

“These competitors practice long and hard,” says Greg, who previously worked as a specialist physio for British soldiers stationed in Germany. “You are more likely to hurt yourself cycling in London than competing in bobsleigh.”

He is currently awaiting another major sporting event, the Commonwealth Games in June, where for two weeks he will be lead physio for the triathlon, to be held in Strathclyde Country Park, just outside Glasgow.

While Greg is treating injuries in Scotland, his Ealing clients will be seen by colleagues.

To Paul Laidlaw, the food itself is the whole story: the start, the middle and the finish. Dishing up his signature curried goat from a busy kitchen at the Top Hill Caribbean English cuisine restaurant on West Drayton Road (across from West Ealing station), Paul explains that to run a food business, “you need to sleep with it and eat it”.

“People like to come in and see you and make the connection,” he adds.

Starting with the goat, which is sustainably sourced from The Goat Company farm in Northumberland. There’s no passing off sheep for goat in these parts.

Paul Laidlaw: ‘Here for Top Hill can seat up to West Ealing commuters.’ 20, and Paul has plans to maximise the dine-in experience. “Business-people and families want somewhere to eat that’s warm and quiet.”

In the middle of all this planning, Paul continues to cater for weddings and parties. West Ealing born and bred (his parents are Jamaican), he is proud of having cooked for Destiny’s Child and Bobby Robson during his days at the RAC Country Club in Epsom.

The goat was excellent. Too bad I couldn’t stay for Paul’s other fab invention: the rum and raisin cheesecake. What a finish that would have been. http://top-hill.co.uk

‘Contactus Ealing/Ealing Homebiz’ are proud clients of this stalwart Broadway business – founded by Nigel and Shereen Presky in 1982 – even more so now that their website building service, EP Web Design is expanding.

“It’s still mainly print – maybe 70 per cent print versus 30 per cent web design,” says Nigel, “but the web side of things is definitely growing.”

“We offer an all-round service,” adds Shereen, who also runs MulberryB, a virtual personal assistant business.

“We enjoy working with the customers, who don’t always know what they need.” And thanks to in-house graphic designer Maddie Cunnane, there’s always on-hand skills and advice to draw on, from concept to finished product.

This is another reason why Express Print stands out from cheap online competitors – they’re customer-friendly, winning over international clients like Gillette, BBC,

Lego, and Baskin & Robbins.

Nigel has built up a solid reputation in the area, and is known for his involvement with various West Ealing community organisations, including as chairman of the West Ealing Traders Association and contributing to the West Ealing BID. He is also involved as a committee member of the West Ealing Centre Neighbourhood Forum, West Ealing Regeneration, and supports the West Ealing Hub (see sidebar).

Salama – at the heart of the town Stowell’s Corner, a.k.a. Cafe Onik At the top of Drayton Green Road (where The Avenue joins with Argyle Road) stands a building labelled “Stowell’s Corner”. @ContactusEaling asked Twitter about it, and got some replies: @hiccup: It was a wine merchant called Stowells, many years ago. @BoddersNo2: Stowells & Sons was a wine merchant who set up his business in 1878. @BoddersNo2: They sold up to Whitbread in the 1920s for £20,000. @BoddersNo2:They went on to become Threshers. @BoddersNo2: Completely unrelated, Carry On Sargent was filmed almost entirely around there.

On the Uxbridge Road side of the Lido junction, there is an internet cafe called Salama.

But beyond the mobile accessories counter where they do Western Union and Moneygram transfers, there is a charity called the Gargaar Somali Welfare Association.

Dr Adam Hussen, a British-born Somalian gynaecologist, runs the centre, which offers help to job-seekers and new arrivals who are struggling with the English language barrier.

“Most of the people we see here – over 100 a day – are on benefits,” says Dr Hussen.

Colormax: our strength is same-day turnaround

“E

ighty-five per cent of the work we do is sameday and in-house,” says Sahil Sasan, who recently took over the Broadway branch of Colormax. “From t-shirt printing to mobile phone covers, mugs, and other kinds of promotional items.”

Originally from India, Sahil

came to London in 2004 to study fashion journalism, and settled in West Ealing when shops like Marks and Spencer and McDonald’s were still part of an attractive high street.

He’s not sure the pound shops and betting chains are helping the area much: “When you sell luxury goods, you attract luxury customers,” he explains.

“When you sell 99p products, well...”

He is happy with his location opposite Dean Gardens: “Where we are, you can see us from all corners; that has to be good for business.”

Ian Bailey, Wild County Organics: “I’m here every Saturday, also in Notting Hill. The mixed bags are working well today – some spring greens, kale. We have a bigger variety in the summer months – tomatoes, strawberries. We grow them at our farm in Cambridgeshire.”

www.colormaxuk.com Sahil: ‘Between Hayes and Shepherd’s Bush, we are the only place you can get your architectural drawings copied.’

Dragutin convinces a customer of the benefits of organic buffalo milk from Alham Wood Farm: “Organic farming is the future for all of us.”

Market manager Rachel Hearson: “We usually have 20-23 stalls. I’ve been shopping here myself for 10 years, and it feels good buying from people. The good thing about the Ealing Farmers Market is that there are a lot of loyal customers – people do come out and support it.

“And since the horse meat scandal, people are now a lot more conscious about where their food comes from.

They bring their children to show them what food really looks like.”

Hello Shelley addressing the panel

Helping Ealing Council to recognise homebiz Just back from Ealing Council Scrutiny Panel (12 Feb) where I had been invited – by the Panel itself – to suggest ways the Council could support local home-based businesses.

Accompanying me were Glenda Shawley and Shelley Henderson, local businesswomen with many years of homebiz experience. This meeting was a significant step towards increasing councillors’ awareness of the homebiz sector.

Here are the main points we offered: (i) update Council website to feature smallbiz listings and/ or sources of funding and advice; (ii) launch ‘Ealing Means Business’ expo; and (iii) revamp the Ealing Business Partnership.

The Office of National Statistics figures point to over 16,000 home-based businesses in the borough. We deserve to be taken seriously by our Council.

Sarah Campus headed off to a business meeting in a Brentford cafe in January not quite knowing what to expect. When she heard that the prime minister, David Cameron, had also been invited, and was on his way too, she hurried to think up what they could talk about. So she talked to him about her cupcake business, Sprinkled Magic.

“It was great to talk with him and he was really interested in how I am developing the business,” says Chiswick-based Sarah, who was one of four women entrepreneurs invited by local MP Mary Macleod.

“The prime minister listened to us and offered guidance about where to get help to grow our businesses, about hiring our first employee, business rates, and having a mentor.”

So many called, but few chosen, it struck me, when it comes to life coaches. There are hundreds graduating each month but only a mere handful are going on to succeed with abundant practices.

I’ve been a life coach for 10 years and have coached the great and the good from supermodels and rock stars, to mumpreneurs, GPs, lawyers, scientists, actors and even a lapdancer – people like you hoping to get the best out of their lives.

Coaching is a career that gives you freedom and flexibility, and offers the chance for personal development and a real sense of meaning and purpose. Coaches inspire, motivate, and make a

But you do need to learn some amazing tools and guidelines to help people move on and importantly to set yourself up for success. That is why I have developed my own coaching school where I have alchemised my 10 years of experience into a training programme like no other.

“In my humble opinion, Yewande: favourite my perfume scent – neroli (orange blossom) is better than big brands as I use natural aromatic plant extracts,” she says.

In her Hanwell lab, she’s made over 30 scents, with names like ‘Agreeable’, ‘Acceptable’, and ‘Nasal Nourishment’.

‘Need to recruit the right people’ The Dzikowskis

O

ne question that often comes up for homebased businesses is: “What do we do when we’ve outgrown the home office?”.

Daniel Dzikowski, founder of IT support company Purple Lattice Solutions, explains how he managed this transition: “I worked at home for about three years at the start. Then in 2005 I decided to employ someone. Once I did, I looked for an office and moved my business away from home.

Employing someone was one of the best steps I made in my business.” yewande.rolph@googlemail.com His wife Susy, director of

Dorset-based recruitment company PHVR Engineering, and so a remote worker herself, held his hand through the process.

“He thought that a technical person was what he needed,” Susy says, “but I helped him to focus on his employees’ people skills instead.”

Daniel adds: “Someone who is friendly and helpful will do more for your business than someone who’s skilled technically.”

Now with six members of staff at their Hanger Lane office, Purple Lattice is ready to handle any SME computer need, from on-call advice to migrating a server to installing new machines and software. www.purplelattice.com

Q: Did you always like working with wood? A: Yes. I gained my appreciation of the versatility of wood and cabinet-making when I took a job in an antiques shop 18 years ago. I have been working with and making furniture ever since.

Tim Amery has lived and worked in Ealing his entire life. As a W13 business owner he is passionate about providing the local community with beautiful, high quality, bespoke furniture, all hand crafted in their Ealing workshop.

Q: With your fine art degree, is this a kind of sculpture for you? A: Whether making a sculpture or a piece of furniture there is a process to be followed. The process of turning an idea into an object.

My degree helped me to develop that creative process.

most requested item. People always need more storage.

Many of our customers choose bespoke alcove storage because this is the best way to utilise the whole space. Plus a well-fitting alcove cabinet always looks great in any Edwardian/Victorian room!

Q: How did you get so good at alcove shelving – have you been getting lots of practice in these Edwardian/ Victorian homes in Ealing?

A: Yes! Alcove storage is our

Q: Tell us about a recent job that you’re proud of. A: We made a shop counter for a good friend of mine for her shop Kaboodles. We included

lots of little practical details in order to make her day-to-day life easier. She was thrilled, and I was pleased to be able to provide her with a piece of furniture that fitted her requirements perfectly.

Q: As a West Ealing based business, how will Crossrail and all it brings affect your work? A: Change brings both uncertainty and new opportunities. Whatever expansion takes place I am determined that I will always base my business in Ealing.

“I wanted someone to come to me”

Maxine Brightman, Ealing Cat and Dog Visits

Maxine Brightman looks like a cat person. She also looks like a dog person. And a hamster person, fish person, even snake or stick insect person.

Which comes in handy because if she’s house-sitting for you while looking after your pets, you need to know that she can cope with whatever the animals get up to while you’re away at work or on holiday.

Maxine started Ealing Cat and Dog Visits last year because of experiences with her own pets: “I couldn’t take them to board or to a cattery, they would go ballistic,” she says. “I wanted someone

(reliable) to come to me.”

She grabbed the gap in the market and is now building up the business. For her clients’ added peace of mind, she is also a qualified Animal Aider.

Based in W7 and covering a wide West London area, Maxine’s biggest expenses are parking and petrol. Clients naturally prefer her to be discreet: “The last thing they want is someone emblazoned with uniform and branding, going in and out of their home while they’re away,” she says.
