SoCo, which stands for Seeds of Collaboration, was founded by two self-described tahini addicts from Israel, to bring the magic of tahini to America while reaching across borders to build bridges between communities.

At their core, SoCo a women owned company believes that economic collaboration is a sustainable way to build bridges between communities in conflict.

SoCo also gives back by donating 1% of proceeds to MEET (Middle East Entrepreneurs of Tomorrow), a non-profit in full partnership with MIT that connects young Israeli and Palestinian students using the common language of technology and entrepreneurship.

Every SoCo jar sold helps fund a student startup at MEET, seeding more partnerships like ours.
