care.
"I wouldn't sell something that I couldn't serve to my family"
​
This Community and my Ethiopian heritage are the cornerstone of who we are. We have set strong ties with the neighborhood over the years and they trust us to deliver quality foods but also to work with their constrains.
​
From Ethiopian spices, drinks, Injera, to daily fresh baguettes, we understand that the collection of cultures in our neighborhood is unique and being able to understand and provide for their needs only helps make us stronger.
