MEET OUR FOUNDER

Opeyemi Ojajuni (Tessy)

Founder & Executive Culinary Director | Tessy’s Kitchen Inc.

“Rooted in Tradition. Driven by Passion. Inspired by Purpose.”

Born in Ibadan and raised in Osun State, Nigeria, Opeyemi’s culinary journey began at the hearths of traditional grandmothers and celebrated village caterers known as Olopo. In 2009, she channeled those ancestral recipes into founding Tessy’s Kitchen to put herself through school.

​​

Over 13 years ago, she brought that passion to Canada—nurturing motherhood, completing higher education, and relentlessly expanding her vision. Today in Edmonton, she leads a premier restaurant, catering powerhouse, and packaged food brand bringing the authentic soul of West Africa to modern Canadian tables.

“Cooking has always been my happy place. I believe food is more than nourishment; it is a beautiful way to share love, culture, and happiness.”
