For locals in Sherwood, they’re lucky enough to have a variety of dining options, charity shops, convenience shops and bakeries. There is one shop, however, that has a selection of pretty much everything you can think of.
Community reporter Keimae Blake went inside the Ozan International Food Centre to report on all the many things you can find inside…
Affordable, low-cost and cost-effective: this is how many people are shopping now. With people buying alternative brands to save a few pence, shopping in supermarkets may take longer now as many find themselves price-matching.

The Ozan International Food Centre in Mansfield Road has something for everyone. Meat eaters, vegetarians and those with a sweet tooth are sure to leave with something.
Taking a walk down to the store, many people were outside scanning the fruit and veg on display. With deals such as lemons or limes 4 for £1, cauliflower for £1.79 and boxes of grapes for £1.99, there were many empty boxes showing just how much had gone throughout the day.
Many will also be glad to know that the supermarket has a free cash machine outside so if you’ve forgotten to use the one outside of Nisa Local or the Co-Op , the Ozan supermarket is your place to go.
With rows and rows of brands, some that you may not find in branded supermarkets, there were just as many people inside as there were outside. The supermarket is clearly popular.
Inside, the supermarket has baked bread, a butchers and a deli counter.
With Turkish, German, Caribbean, Italian, Asian, American brands and more if you're cooking a traditional dish and not sure where to go, Ozan will most probably stock what you’re looking for. Brands include Kamis, a Polish manufacturer, Prymat and more.
Inside, a 430G jar of pitted olives is just £1.69 and bags of pasta for just 79P.
With plenty of drinks brands perfect for stocking up too such as Sunpride, cartons of KA at 2 for £2, as the festive seasons kicks in where many will be spending time with family and friends, Ozan could be the perfect place to come for last minute essentials when putting on a feast.
The store with tonnes to choose from also sells toiletries and cleaning products. Ozan has many items to offer so they’re 100% definitely worth a browse and I’m almost certain you’ll leave with something.
