After turning Thai Dragon sriracha and Laila rice into mainstream brands, Surya CEO Harry Dulai is betting big on Korean, African and Indo-Chinese
For Harry Dulai, doing business is all about family. His father arrived on these shores from India in December 1965 with £3 to his name and worked odd jobs while getting a series of market stalls off the ground.
“As his business grew, me and my brother were there. That’s how we’ve learned business,” says Dulai, now group CEO of what has become Surya Foods. “Business is in my family’s blood, and being part of a family business teaches you more than anything else.”
Over the intervening decades, Surya Foods has grown into one of the UK’s largest suppliers of world foods, with turnover hitting more than £250m in 2024.
