Sobel's had the incredible opportunity to be part of the Black Culture Market at the Westfield White City mall. It was an exciting two-day event filled with vibrancy, community spirit, and the chance to showcase our authentic African and Caribbean drinks to a diverse and enthusiastic public.

Celebrating Black Excellence in White City (London)

The Black Culture Market is a beacon of creativity and innovation, bringing together a wide range of Black-owned businesses to celebrate culture, heritage, and entrepreneurship.

The energy was palpable, and it was heartwarming to see so many people eager to learn more about our drinks and the story behind Sobel's.

The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with many people praising the refreshing, natural taste and low sugar content. It was wonderful to hear comments like "This tastes so healthy!" and "It's so refreshing and natural," which reaffirmed our commitment to authenticity and quality.
