Gap Finders: The Gym Kitchen founder Segun Akinwoleola

You and Yours

Available for over a year

Segun Akinwoleola founded The Gym Kitchen in 2016. It makes ready meals aimed at gym-goers. In this Gap Finders interview, Segun takes us from his upbringing in a part of East London where, as he puts it, "gangs, riots and poverty dominated everyday life" to the lightbulb moment that led to the creation of a food brand that has been taken on by major supermarkets including Tesco and Sainsbury's. PRESENTER: WINIFRED ROBINSON PRODUCER: DAVE JAMES
