Sevan Harissa Chilipasta

Sevan Harissa is a traditional North African hot chili paste packaged for the Nordic market. The product is known for its spicy and aromatic profile, typically made from roasted red peppers, Baklouti peppers, serrano peppers, and other hot chili peppers, along with spices and herbs like garlic paste, caraway seeds, coriander seeds, cumin, and olive oil.

While the brand Sevan is headquartered in Sweden and focuses on Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine, its Harissa is frequently sourced directly from Tunisia to ensure authentic flavor and production methods. The brand acts as a bridge between traditional food cultures and the modern Scandinavian grocery retail sector, providing high-quality ethnic ingredients to a broad audience.

The brand was founded by the Maroutian family, who established Sevan as a leader in the Mediterranean food category in Sweden. Today, the brand remains a significant part of the Sevan AB portfolio, which has expanded its distribution across the Nordic region through various retail partnerships.
