Since 1946

Since 1946, Alameddine has proudly brought authentic Lebanese flavors to generations of families.

Rooted in tradition and quality, our journey reflects over 80 years of dedication to preserving the rich taste of Lebanon. Officially established in Tripoli, North Lebanon, our company carries the Lebanese cedar in its logo as a symbol of authenticity, heritage, and strong cultural roots.

Inspired by our traditions and oriental cuisine, we craft products such as our famous Halawa Tahinia and other Lebanese specialties with the same passion and craftsmanship that have defined us for decades. Alameddine Foods continues to honor its legacy while sharing the true taste of Lebanon with the world.

Tahini, halawa and sesame are basic ingredients in the traditional meals of Tripoli — from the famous Kaak to sweets like Simsimiya and Barazek.
