About Us: Hunza Foodways

At Hunza Foodways, we’re more than just a company that produces nuts & snacks – we’re a community based, women-led enterprise who strive to promote the centuries old food secrets of Hunza Valley.

Our Story: From the Valleys of Hunza to Your Home

In the heart of the Hunza Valley, surrounded by snow-capped peaks and crystal-clear rivers, lies a village where the ancient traditions of organic farming and sustainable living are still honored. This is where Hunza Foodways was born in 2013. What began as a humble organic food cabin—an idea sparked by the love for pure, natural food—has blossomed into a movement that spans across Pakistan.

The original business name was GS Hunza Dry Fruits, which we rebranded as Hunza Foodways in 2023 for clarity.

In the early days, our founders, Hawa, Sehrish and Nizar, set out on a simple mission: to share the incredible bounty of the Hunza Valley with the rest of the country. They recognized that the nutrient-rich soil and pure mountain air gave birth to some of the finest dried fruits, nuts, and natural products. What started with local sales quickly grew as word spread about the unmatched quality and taste of Hunza’s organic offerings.

But Hunza Foodways is about more than just food—it’s about impact.

Our Impact: Nurturing People and the Planet

At Hunza Foodways, we believe in the power of nature. Every apricot, walnut, and kernel we harvest comes from trees grown with love, in harmony with the land. Our commitment to organic farming ensures that no harmful chemicals or pesticides taint the natural purity of our produce.

But it doesn’t stop there. Our vision extends beyond the products we sell to the very environment we cherish. We’ve taken significant steps toward sustainable living by using eco-friendly packaging and minimizing waste. Our packaging is crafted from materials that have minimal environmental impact, because we believe that natural food deserves natural packaging. 😊

Each sale from Hunza Foodways contributes to our tree-planting initiatives, helping to replenish the earth and preserve the pristine beauty of the Hunza Valley. We’re also dedicated to empowering local farmers, ensuring that they benefit from fair trade practices and sustainable farming techniques. In doing so, we uplift not only the land but also the people who call it home.

Why Hunza Foodways?

The natural food of Hunza isn’t just delicious—it’s life-enhancing. The nutrient-dense, chemical-free products from our valley are packed with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that promote longevity and well-being. For centuries, the people of Hunza have thrived on these organic foods, and we’re proud to bring this ancient tradition of health to you.
