Obour Foods

In late 2017, a 26-year-old finance professional living in Downtown San Francisco decided to transform his passion for food into a business. Frustrated with corporate monotony, he Googled "How to start a food business in San Francisco" and Obour Foods was born. Armed with delicious hummus recipes and a belief in the importance of taste, integrity, and ingredient quality, he set out on this culinary adventure.

Starting with an LLC and a shared commercial kitchen, Obour Foods quickly became San Francisco’s favorite for hummus, tahini, and more. Today, Obour Foods operates across 17 weekly Bay Area farmers markets and boasts a flagship retail shop at the San Francisco Ferry Building Marketplace.

Environmental responsibility is also a core value at Obour Foods. They package their products in eco-friendly glass jars and have a farmers market jar return program that reduces their packaging footprint by 30%.
