Gyro Shack’s Exclusive, Local Hummus Provider Utilizes Sustainable and Innovative Farming Practices
BOISE, Idaho- Gyro Shack, the fresh, authentic Greek quick-service restaurant based in Boise, has a unique partnership to bring them hummus just as fresh as the rest of the brand’s menu. Zacca Hummus prides themselves on their innovative and sustainable farming practices, as well as servicing another local Idaho business that holds the same values as Zacca.
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. No matter how much both Zacca Hummus and Gyro Shack have grown, the brands continue to be trailblazers within the 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 and look forward to growing together.
“As far as Seth wants to grow, we will be with him and the Gyro Shack brand. Our partnership is mutually beneficial and growing together truly is a dream come true,” said Janine.
