About Zarzour Foods

Zarzour was established in 1942 in Damascus,the oldest commercial capital in the world, in the oldest commercial market in the Middle East, the Medhat Basha Market. The company’s founder, Mr. Mohamed Kamel Zarzour, was a veteran trader specializing in the import and export of food products. His son, Mr. Mohamed Zarzour, led the business into the production and packaging of food products, spices in particular. Mr. Mohamed Zarzour specialized in the production of unique spice blends under the Zarzour trade name, that brand soon carved itself a prominent position amongst the leading Syrian spice brands. The Zarzour brand name gained notoriety inside and outside the local market. That notoriety was further bolstered after the introduction of the first ever ready and easy-to-use packed falafel powder mix (falafel is the most popular fast food in Syria and the region). As Mr. Mohamed Zarzour’s businesses prospered for over 40 years at both commercial and industrial levels, there was a growing need for new blood and innovative ideas. Mr. Zarzour’s sons, Kamel and Beshr joined the business and the trading company became family company known as Zarzour for Food Products company. The company invented the idea of a meat substitute product,namely Kefta in 2018. The group worked to spread in all the Syrian cities and the neighbouring countries(Lebanon,Jordan and Iraq)and some other Arab countries (Egypt,Sudan,Libya,Saudi Arabia,Oman,U.A.E,and Qatar) and foreign countries(Germany,Sweden,United Kingdom,Canada,U,S.A,Australia. Zarzour foodstuff group aims within its strategy to expand in all parts of the world. In 2020 the founder Muhammad Zarzour died and all follow-up work was done by the third generation(Kamel and Beshr). In 2024 the group established its regional branch in Egypt by setting up factory in Egypt ,which is intended to be the gate to enter Egypt and African Markets
