About The Producer

Near East
Worcester, MA
Near East® is rooted in a rich history that began with Armenian immigrants George and Hannah Kalajian, who founded the company in 1962 in Worcester, Massachusetts. Initially operating as a small family-owned grocery store, the business took a transformative turn when Hannah started serving her specialty, an Armenian-style rice pilaf, at the store’s luncheonette. The popularity of her pilaf led Hannah to package and sell it directly from her home kitchen, marking the birth of Near East® as a food brand. This homegrown product quickly captured the hearts and palates of locals, prompting a shift to larger production facilities to meet growing demand.Read more
