Maazah, a Minneapolis-based food brand known for its globally inspired dips and sauces, announced it has closed a $2 million seed financing round to accelerate nationwide retail expansion and strengthen its distribution capabilities.
The round was backed by a group of Minnesota-based family offices, reflecting strong regional investor confidence in the company’s growth trajectory and brand positioning. The funding provides additional resources as Maazah builds on its recent retail momentum and scales operations to meet increasing consumer demand.
The company has secured nationwide launches with Whole Foods Market and Sprouts Farmers Market, while also expanding its footprint within Costco across multiple regions. These retail partnerships mark a significant milestone for the brand, broadening access to its globally inspired products and increasing visibility among mainstream grocery shoppers.
Proceeds from the seed financing will be used to scale production capacity, enhance supply chain infrastructure, strengthen in-store retail execution, and expand distribution into new markets. The company also plans to invest in continued product innovation, developing new offerings that build on its portfolio of bold, globally inspired flavors. By reinforcing operational capabilities while maintaining a focus on quality and authenticity, Maazah aims to position itself for sustained national growth.
Founded by sisters Yasmeen and Sheilla Sajady, Maazah draws inspiration from family recipes and culinary traditions, reimagining them for today’s diverse, flavor-seeking consumers. The brand has differentiated itself by bringing globally inspired taste profiles to the refrigerated dips and sauces category, appealing to shoppers seeking distinctive, versatile products that elevate everyday meals.
With expanded retail distribution and fresh capital to support operational growth, the company is focused on deepening relationships with national and regional retailers while continuing to build brand awareness across the U.S. market.
