TL;DR
Zacca Hummus, a sustainable hummus provider, has partnered with Gyro Shack to supply hummus to the Greek quick-service food brand. The partnership utilizes Zacca's innovative and locally sourced hummus, made from garbanzo beans grown on the Zenner Family farm.
Zacca’s garbanzo beans are grown on the Zenner Family farm. It is the very first farm in Idaho to be Food Alliance Certified and is also Farm Smart Certified. Their commitment to sustainable agriculture runs deep with their regenerative farming practices and preservation of the soil. They are the only hummus brand with traceability directly back to the Zenner Family farm. Even with the growth of the brand, Zacca’s values have remained constant throughout their partnership with Gyro Shack.
“The owner of Gyro Shack at the time connected with us at Zacca, and we started providing our hummus for Gyro Shack while we were still manufacturing out of University of Idaho’s Food Tech Center,” said Janine Zenner, Co-Founder of Zacca Hummus. “I still remember the day that I walked into the conference room when Seth, the president of Gyro Shack, wanted to try our hummus. His passion for our product made our partnership an easy decision, and we continue to work collaboratively in support of our partnership.”
Just like Gyro Shack’s fresh and healthy drive-through options are unique, Gyro Shack’s partnership with Zacca is innovative within the quick-service restaurant industry.
“Both Gyro Shack and Zacca customers know that this hummus brand has a story and that it’s clean and locally sourced,” said Seth Brink, president of Gyro Shack. “Our partnership with Zacca is so unique because we can provide this fresh, high-quality product fast- even through a drive-through. People want to know where their food comes from, and being able to bring that to our customers is incredibly unique with a quick-service concept.”
Both Janine and Seth are committed to providing the very best product to their customers, and their partnership is no different. They are committed to their partnership.
