Al'Fez is a range of foods based on and inspired by the cuisines of North Africa and the Middle East; or more concisely: Moroccan and Lebanese foods. I'd like to say that the Al'Fez brand was conceived in 1998 but in reality the reason for the brand's existence goes back many years before that; because so much of what the range represents now is owed to my experiences as a child growing up in the Middle East. Picture a bustling souk in the heart of Jerusalem's Arab quarter in the 1970's where as a child I would experience all the colourful aromas and tastes of simple yet amazingly delicious foods. I will never forget dipping a type of sesame bagel - freshly made of course - in wonderful Za'atar wrapped in small and a tightly folded newspaper cutting, or sitting in one of the many cafes enjoying freshly made houmous generously drizzled with the richest Jordanian olive oil and freshly baked pitta bread; followed by a typical Arab dessert cut in giant round trays, drenched in orange blossom syrup.

Algamar is the leading Spanish firm specialising in dried sea vegetables for human consumption. Its headquarters are in the Bay of Vigo, 18 km from the city of Vigo and 30 km north of the Portuguese border. Most of the company's sea vegetables are harvested on the southern coast of Galicia, designated part of the European Union's Natura 2000 network and very close to the Atlantic Islands Natural Reserve. Galicia (northwestern Spain) has 35% of the total Spanish coastline. It is a region with an abundance and wide diversity of marine species and a deep- rooted seafaring tradition. Its location, between the 42nd and 44th parallels, is, strangely enough, on the same latitude as the coasts of Japan. The company was founded in 1996 by the Fernandez Saa brothers, Clemente and Fermín, consumers and producers of organic foods since the 1970s, with the aim of promoting and spreading the word about the marvellous nutritional properties of Galicia's native sea vegetables.
