The Name Adodo


Dodo is generally seen to have two meanings. The first, is a simpleton. The second is an extinct flightless bird, once a native of Mauritius.

In the year 1598 AD, Portuguese sailors landing on the shores of the island of Mauritius discovered a previously unknown species of bird, the Dodo. Having been isolated by its island location from contact with humanity, the dodo greeted the new visitors with a child-like innocence. The sailors mistook the gentle spirit of the dodo, and its lack of fear of the new predators, as stupidity. They dubbed the bird "dodo" (meaning something similar to a simpleton in the Portuguese tongue). Many dodo were killed by the human visitors, and those that survived man had to face the introduced animals. Dogs and pigs soon became feral when introduced to the Mauritian eco-system. By the year 1681, the last dodo had died, and the world was left worse with its passing

The dodo was such a unique species of bird, that some three centuries later, it is still remembered as a symbol of the harm mankind can bring to the environment.

Adding an A gave us the best or highest in quality or rank, as in grade 'A' achievement.

Thus Adodo was born, to provide a service of the highest quality, and to always communicate in plain simple english. This will ensure that our customers are not treated like the innocent dodo, but like the human beings that we all are.
