NEW ORLEANS – Global demand for authentic international cuisine is booming—and Middle Eastern food is leading the way. Mezete, a Jordan-based brand transforming traditional recipes into convenient, clean-label products, is excited to debut at the International Dairy Deli Bakery Association (IDDBA) Show, June 1–3 in New Orleans.

With a presence now in over 45 countries, Mezete’s U.S. expansion is fueled by growing consumer demand for bold, plant-based, preservative-free foods. At IDDBA, Mezete will showcase its full range of ready-to-eat dips, sauces, soups, and stews—all made with natural ingredients and no added oils.

“Middle Eastern cuisine is rich in flavor, culture, and nourishment,” said Khaled Kasih, CEO of KASIH Foods, Mezete’s parent company. “We’re proud to share authentic, ready-to-eat Middle Eastern foods crafted with care and integrity, just the way they’re made at home.”
