Our success story

Built on 40 years of experience.

With more than 40 years in the dehydration sector, our founder Mr. Hesham El-Tanbouly is known worldwide for the quality of his dehydrated onion and his customer care.

Having sold our previous facilities, Mr. El-Tanbouly and the second generation built this — our newest and third facility — from scratch, partnering with Agrofood, one of the largest agriculture companies in Egypt, to deliver fully traceable conventional and organic onion.
