Mezete, a premium hummus brand from Jordan, set an ambitious goal: break into the highly competitive U.S. mainstream grocery market. With established players dominating shelf space and strong regional preferences shaping consumer choices, entering the U.S. market required more than just a great product — it needed a smart, data-driven go-to-market strategy. Mezete approached us to help shape their U.S. expansion and establish a foothold in a category crowded with legacy brands.
The strategy and execution transformed Mezete’s U.S. entry. Their AI-driven approach gave us clarity, speed, and real traction.
