Eazy Coox Takes Cooking to Next Level with New Food Condiments
By Modupe Gbadeyanka
As part of its contribution to nutritional development and provision of a new cooking experience, Eazy Coox has introduced four essential ready to use ingredients.
The food condiments come in sealed earth friendly glass jars of Chopped Garlic, Chopped Ginger, Chopped Scotch Bonnet and Chopped Habanero Chilli; all in 190g size packages.
Eazy Coox’s mission is to help several upwardly mobile individuals, modern day women and families solve their cooking challenges with the provision of ready to use condiments. The products which come in hygienic glass jars are peeled, chopped and preserved in either white wine vinegar or Olive Oil for an easy to use experience.
During a chat with the Founder of Eazy Coox, Mrs Bolanle Akinyemi said, “Upon return from the United Kingdom, I searched for a substitute to the bottles of chopped garlic and ginger I used to bring back. Given that we are blessed in abundance with garlic and ginger with a higher nutritional value, we decided to support the buy-Nigeria policy by providing ready-to-use food condiments in a way that will compete with those I used to bring back home.”
The Chopped Garlic, Chopped Ginger, Chopped Scotch Bonnet (popularly known as ‘Ata Rodo’ come in premium package size of 190g.
Eazy Coox currently has a distribution network spanning across stores and supermarkets in Lagos, Benin, Enugu, Abuja and Kaduna.
Products are available via www.eazycoox.com and outlets like Value Exchange, Grand Square Alausa, Shoppers Delight VI, Farmers Place Lekki, Daytona Lekki, CCD Ogudu to mention a few.
Over the years, Nigerians have become increasingly sophisticated and conscious of what condiments go into their food, more so with the promotion of indigenous research on food seasoning and ready to use traditional spices. So it was just a matter of time before a brilliant food service company would emerge with products that combines quality and convenience for a do-it-yourself meal at home.
Several foodies are beginning to adopt the Eazy Coox lifestyle including the singles and busy professionals. They want to eat good food but don’t have the time to spend hours slaving to prepare meals or the huge outlay from ‘eating out’; individuals who like to enjoy the quiet and privacy of their homes, but like to eat well; and people who are entertaining guest and want to serve exciting, tasty meals without spending much time and effort to put it together.
Eazy Coox was established in 2014 with the vision to provide the most convenient food condiments to consumers in Africa. The company believes cooking should be fun, exciting and above all easy, creating an adventure with flavours that explore different tastes of the world.

Pressure is beginning to mount on the Nigerian Naira in the different segments of the foreign exchange (FX) market despite an oil windfall triggered by the Middle East crisis.
On Monday, April 27, the domestic currency further weakened against the United States Dollar in the Nigerian Autonomous Foreign Exchange Market (NAFEX) by N16.47 or 1.2 per cent to N1,380.71/$1 from the previous day’s N1,364.24/$1.
It was not different against the Pound Sterling in the same market window, as it lost N16.04 to trade at N1,863.76/£1 versus Monday’s closing rate of N1,847.72/£1, and against the Euro, it slipped by N12.72 to close at N1,615.01/€1 versus N1,602.29/€1.
The Naira also depreciated against the Dollar at the black market yesterday by N5 to quote at N1,390/$1 compared with the previous price of N1,385, and at the GTBank forex counter, it further crashed by N9 to settle at N1,379/$1 compared with the preceding session’s N1,370/$1.
The continued decline of the Naira comes as traders increasingly seek other safe-haven currencies amid continued global disruptions.
The benefit awash in the global market is making foreign portfolio investors stay short in Nigerian markets. Despite this, the daily FX publication released showed that interbank turnover rose to $98.829 million across 78 deals, up from $76.65 million.
Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency market remained cautious, with Bitcoin (BTC) trading at $77,216.66 despite surging oil prices and geopolitical tensions over a potential extended US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Analysts say the supply overhang has finally dried up, and the sellers who were spooked by macro shifts or quantum fears have already exited, leaving the market much thinner on the sell-side.
Investors will await decisions made by central banks this week. The US Federal Reserve will announce its rate decision later on Wednesday, while the European Central Bank (ECB) follows on Thursday.
Ethereum (ETH) gained 1.5 per cent to trade at $2,324.59, Dogecoin (DOGE) chalked up 1.4 per cent to sell for $0.1016, Solana (SOL) appreciated by 0.6 per cent to $84.85, Cardano (ADA) grew by 0.5 per cent to $0.2483, and Binance Coin (BNB) advanced by 0.2 per cent to $627.15.
However, TRON (TRX) depreciated by 0.6 per cent to $0.3224, and Ripple (XRP) lost 0.03 per cent to sell at $1.39, while the US Dollar Tether (USDT) and the US Dollar Coin (USDC) were unchanged at $1.00 each.

Oil was up by nearly 3 per cent on Tuesday as persistent worries about supply constraints from the closed Strait of Hormuz continued, with Brent futures for June rising by $3.03 or 2.8 per cent to $111.26 a barrel, and the US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures growing by $3.56 or 3.7 per cent to $99.93 a barrel.
An earlier round of negotiations between the United States and Iran collapsed last week after face-to-face talks failed.
Ship-tracking data showed significant disruptions in the region, with six Iranian oil tankers forced to turn back due to the US blockade, but some traffic is still moving.
Prices trimmed some of the advances after the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the fourth-largest producer in the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), said on Tuesday it would exit the group on this Friday, May 1, 2026.
This dealt a blow to the oil-exporting group and its de facto leader, Saudi Arabia.
The UAE could quickly add between 1 million and 1.5 million barrels per day of output. However, with the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, analysts said that there’s nowhere for that supply to go.
The UAE joined OPEC in 1967, but tension with Saudi Arabia over production quotas has been building for years.
Under the OPEC+ deal, the country has been held to roughly 3 million barrels per day while sitting on capacity above 4 million. It has been pushing toward 5 million barrels per day by 2027, and that target is hard to achieve with quotas built around someone else’s view of the market.
The war in Yemen broke whatever was left of diplomatic patience.
President Donald Trump said he was unhappy with the latest Iranian proposal to end the war. The proposal would avoid addressing the nuclear programme until hostilities cease and Gulf shipping disputes are resolved.
The Idemitsu Maru, a Panama-flagged tanker carrying 2 million barrels of Saudi oil, and an LNG tanker managed by the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) crossed the Strait on Tuesday, shipping data showed.
Vortexa data showed that the amount of crude oil held around the world on tankers that have been stationary for at least seven days rose to 153.11 million barrels as of April 24.
The American Petroleum Institute (API) estimated that crude oil inventories in the United States fell by 1.79 million barrels in the week ending April 24. The official data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) will be released later on Wednesday.
