Quality is what separates memorable hummus from forgettable hummus, and Gen Z-founded hummus brand Habiza's dedication to real, simple ingredients and authentic flavor has struck such a chord with snackers that it has become the fastest-growing hummus brand in the United States. As the creator of the "world's creamiest hummus," Habiza is ushering in a new era with simple ingredients, old-world techniques, and exclusion of all seed oils, artificial preservatives or glyphosate. In addition to the hummus' super-creamy texture and generationally inspired recipe, snackers can't get enough of flavors like Jalapeňo Serrano, Garlic Green Onion, and Dark Chili Bell Pepper.
Already, Habiza partners with Target, Albertsons Companies, Erewhon, Giant, New Seasons Market, and other retailers, and in September, it's set to announce a new retail partnership.
