Hikmat Fine Foods
The term “Hikmat” originates from the Arabic language, specifically “Hikmah,” meaning “wisdom” in English. Across the Middle East, Central, and South Asia, “Hikmah” represents deep understanding and wise decision-making based on knowledge and ethics.
In a strategic collaboration, Hikmat Fine Foods has partnered with Kanda Fruit Process Co. to bring Afghanistan’s renowned fruits and nuts to North American markets. Kanda Fruits, established officially in 2010 but with roots dating back to the 1950s as a family business, is renowned for exporting premium agricultural produce. Leveraging its extensive experience and network of Afghan farmers, Kanda Fruits is the ideal partner for Hikmat Fine Foods to deliver wholesome and flavorful snacks to customers.
At Hikmat Fine Foods, we embrace the core value of nutritious, naturally cultivated food and its positive impact on health and well-being. We believe in facilitating wise food choices without compromising on quality or accessibility. This commitment is reflected in our choice of the name “Hikmat” for our brand.
