Kare Foods

Home to an abundance of herbs and plants—from basil to mint to moringa—Ethiopia bursts with both health and flavor. Kare Foods, the first handcrafted tea manufacturer in Addis, uses native plants, and modern-day developments in health and flavor to create top-of-the-line teas. Immunity, Digestion, and Forever Young are Kare’s first three offerings, and we’re not stopping there. Our goal is to provide an ever-increasing line of products, including dried fruits and non-synthetic powdered supplements, all of which will boost the health of our community — one bag at a time

Kare Meaning

In the Ethiopian language, Guragena, the word Kare signifies blessings — of peace, health, and prosperity. With Kare, we want to remind each other of the importance of taking time each day to appreciate our health. And that’s why we carefully selected the name KARE to lead our mission, and the teas to bring bliss into your daily routine.

Why Drink Herbal Teas?

Our belief is that an over-reliance on synthetic supplements makes us more, not less, prone to modern illness. That’s why increasingly large numbers of people are calling on the wisdom of our ancestors in order to stay healthy. Fortunately, Ethiopia is steeped in the ancient history of traditional medicine derived from herbal remedies. Although many of these remedies are still used today, they are not easily accessible, especially not in tea form.  

From restless nights to busy workdays, life in Addis can be chaotic, all promoting a poor lifestyle. Hence we customized our teabags with herbs that are loaded with adaptogens to help our bodies resist chemical and biological stressors. And regular consumption of these herbs will not only help boost our immunity and improve gut health but also help keep our skin radiant and flawless for many years to come.

our purpose

Using only high-quality and locally sourced herbs and fruits, KARE aims to keep you healthy and happy—one bag at a time.
