How We Came About
Dovelle Sala-Diakanda is originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo. He is a husband and father of 3 boys, living with his family in Houston, TX.
​
Born in Belgium and raised in Africa and Europe, Dovelle has always enjoyed adding a touch of pili pili (hot sauce, in Lingala) to his food. He realized how much he missed it when he was no longer living at home with his parents, where it was readily available.
​
DoviDova African Hot Sauce born from Dovelle's need to have access to a good quality hot sauce, reasonably priced, that would remind him of his home country. After years of practicing and perfecting the recipe in his home kitchen, DoviDova is now available for purchase to everyone who enjoys adding some spiciness to their food.
From its humble beginnings, DoviDova African Hot Sauce is working to become a household brand by bringing a taste of Africa to everyone, one plate at a time.
The hot sauces come in HOT and MILD flavors. They can be added to any meal, half a teaspoon at a time, or they can enhance your meat and fish marinade.
​
A Texas-based company with its roots in Africa, DoviDova is a flavor booster for all who love and enjoy spicy food without the lasting burning sensation.
