A.B.C
The Abesha Business Card is a wallet-sized leaflet listing a wide variety of Ethiopian run businesses in London. The most numerous outlets are restaurants, wine bars, cafes and takeaways. Also included is a long list of ‘chat dealers’. Chat or qat is an evergreen shrub cultivated in Ethiopia for its leaves, which are chewed as a stimulant, often during social occasions. The businesses included are located all over London, though the largest Ethiopian community in the capital is found in North Kensington.
