History
Becker developed the concept of Zuma while working in Tokyo, where he spent six years learning about Japanese food and culture.[1] In 2002, together with Arjun Waney[2] and Divia Lalvani,[3] Lalvani and Becker launched the first Zuma location in the Knightsbridge area of London. Its success led to its expansion to many cities internationally.
