Roman Foods, LLC – Canton, MI

Roman Foods, LLC was founded in a small, Lebanese town in 2011. As suppliers to the Lebanese Market, the company also exported product to Europe, Brazil, Qatar, Dubai and the United States.  In 2020, Edward Moussawer and his family decided to move the business to the United States. They began importing their own premium white sesame seeds, cultivated and harvested in Africa, to their processing facilities in Canton, Michigan. Today, Roman Foods, LLC produces Certified Non-GMO by A Greener World (AGW) tahini, sold under the Queen Tahini brand.

Certified Non-GMO by AGW is the only food label in North America that helps consumers avoid genetically modified food ingredients and for meat, dairy and eggs, support high-welfare, environmentally sustainable food animal production.

Quality ingredients are at the foundation of Queen Tahini. “We start cleansing the sesame by rinsing it numerous times until the water is crystal clean,” says Moussawer. “We peel and separate the sesame from the shell after drying. Then it goes to our custom-made roasting machines. The aroma is undeniably delightful. After roasting to perfection, we begin grinding the sesame with the stone grinding machines, the “old traditional way”, using our expertise to produce a premium tahini; one that anyone would consider proud to serve to their own families.”

Certified Non-GMO by AGW tahini from Roman Foods, LLC, sold under the Queen Tahini brand is sold to wholesale food industries. For more information, visit romanfoods.us and lebanesequeentahini.info, follow the business on Facebook and get in touch by contacting (248) 930-5516  and [email protected].
