Ethiopian Gourmet Foods Company is a celebration of diversity, blending Ethiopian and Southern cultures through our products. Our hot sauces are in the premiere category and we bring a brand new cultural blend to the hot sauce market, exploding with unique flavors derived from family recipes of both Ethiopia and The South, and Cajun Creole. Addis Ababa Ethiopia, New Orleans, Asheville NC, Austin TX, these are the places our family has called home and the culinary environments which inspired our signature hot sauces. We are two Ethiopian sisters, an American, and a whole lot of spices. Our family kitchen is always cooking up a mélange of Africa and The South. Every dish is a hybrid between the zest of the French Quarter, the sauces of Addis Ababa, the fresh hotness of Tex-Mex, and the tang of The Carolinas. And it is in that spirit that we created The Original Ethiopian Hot Sauce™ and The Hot Ethiopian Hot Sauce™. This is our way of sharing our love of our multicultural home cuisine with you. These sauces aren’t simply more boutique hot sauces to add to a collection in the pantry. Our hot sauces are everyday, everywhere, every food kind of hot sauces.

Ethiopian Gourmet Foods Company sources a majority of our ingredients from local farmers and farmer's markets in Asheville North Carolina. We believe in supporting local farmers, agriculture, local businesses, and the local community however we can and using fresh ingredients from locally sourced farms is part of our core mission as a business. Additionally, we actively collaborate with a broad range of local retailers, small groceries, restaurants, and food markets to make our products accessible to the community.
