Tahini is the next kale…
In Israel,
Tahini is extremely versatile ingredient
that can be served as a healthy delicious side
dish on its own, or as a better-for-you
“Mediterranean Mayonnaise”.
And above all -
Tahini is the best part
of Hummus…
Hummus quality is determined by
theamount of tahini it contains.
Tahini replaces unhealthy fats,
such as Soybean oil
Tahini is also the “secret ingredient”
of the best “Hummus bars”*.
The percentage of Tahini in Hummus
bars range from 10% to 50%.
* Traditional restaurants
serve just or mainly
hummus dishes
The hummus category in Israel is
relatively stagnated, while raw
tahini is growing rapidly and
constantly.
•Perceived as fresher
•Self-preparation and
•influence on taste
•No preservatives
•or stabilizers

Yet,Until quite recently most Americans
didn’t even know what hummus was…
And then came Sabra…Our Tahini comprises 30% of the Sabra hummus!

Sooo…
Why we truly believe Tahini is on the
verge of a major tipping point?
Tahini begins with
tiny ingredient…
100%Natural Sesame
Sesame is a hardy crop with nearly 3,000
commercial varieties from around the
world.
There are varieties of sesame seeds in
several different sizes, colors and
textures.
The most commonly used are of
a white-brown shade.
We all know
sesame, but not
for the right reasons…
Sesame is an erect annual herb having
simple or branching stems.
The growth period of sesame usually
ranges from 3–4 months, but flowering
begins as early as 30–40 days after sowing.
Sesame is grown mainly in China, India,
Sudan- Ethiopia, Central America,
and other tropical and subtropical
countries.

Sesame contains ~ 55% of "good fats"
High in monounsaturated (MUFA~ 21.5%) such as
oleic acid and polyunsaturated fats (PUFA~25%)
such as linoleic acid, yet lower in saturated fats (< 9%).
Linoleic acid is extremely important
for every human being since it is
a building block for various essential
compounds such as prostaglandins.1
MUFA help to reduced risk of
coronary heart disease and reduce
high triglyceride levels, similar to
those found in olive oil. 2

Just like Tahini, Rushdi’s beginning
was very humble…
What began in 1984 as a successful JV
with Unilever, matured into
a leading independent company
fully owned by the Bashir family.
Today, Rushdi is one of Israel’s
largest Tahini and Halva manufacturers,
supplying retail chains and Institutional
customers all over the world.
However, When it comes to risk
management Rushdi is not
a dreaming startup!
It's a full scale, constantly growing,
living business, that's fulfilling its'
ambitious dreams time & again
for more than 30 years...
