According to their website:

“Founded in 2015, our story begins with our commitment to sharing Ethiopia’s unique cuisine, diversified by its rich history. The diversity of flavor that makes Ethiopian cuisine so special can be attributed all the way back to its central role in the trade of goods in the 1400s. A centralized location helped to enrich the overall development of its cuisine by exposing it to various goods, ranging from exotic spices from India, ginger from East Asia, and chili peppers from Portugal. For most of the 3rd and 4th centuries CE, The Roman Empire established Ethiopia as its biggest trading partner to the West, helping to spread Ethiopia's unique products and spices to all corners of the world.”
