Our Heritage
Over a century ago, Sahadi, a specialty market in New York, introduced Americans to the rich flavors of Lebanon and the Middle East, beginning a proud tradition of bringing foods from around the world to the United States.
Throughout the 20th century, many small, family-owned businesses followed this path, making the beloved foods of their homelands available to growing immigrant communities across North America. From Asli, offering South Asian and Indian specialties, to Indo-European, showcasing premium European products; from Sunburst, featuring African and Caribbean favorites, to Vintage, UBC Food, Sahadi, and Ziyad, known for their authentic Turkish and Middle Eastern offerings, each company built a lasting reputation for quality, authenticity, and cultural connection.
Together, these pioneering brands have helped preserve the culinary traditions and heritage of the communities they represent, while enriching the food landscape of America for generations.
