Our story
From Herat wheat to your table
Heray Food Industry has spent more than three decades turning Herat's wheat into the biscuits, wafers and cheese puffs Afghan families reach for first.
From our founder
A family recipe, done properly
We didn't set out to build a factory — we set out to bake something worth reaching for. Every batch that leaves Herat still carries that same intention, thirty years on.
The Heray Family, Founders
Heray Food Industry began in 1993 as a small family bakery in Herat. What started with one oven and a handful of recipes has grown into a facility producing up to 40 tons a day — but the family that started it is still the family running it, and the standard hasn't moved.
Our mission
Good food, made honestly
To bring Afghan families trusted, affordable snacks made with real ingredients and real care — from a factory rooted in Herat, for tables across the country.
Our vision
A taste of home, everywhere
To grow from a family bakery into Afghanistan's most trusted food brand, known as much for its integrity as for its taste.
Our journey
Three decades, three milestones
1993
Founded in Herat
Heray began as a small family food business in Herat, with a simple goal: bake something worth reaching for.
2003
Herat Industrial Park
Production moved into a dedicated facility at Herat Industrial Park, scaling up without losing the care of a family bakery.
Today
Nine brands, seven provinces
Heray now bakes up to 40 tons a day across nine brands, reaching families in Herat, Kabul, Jalalabad, Mazar-e-Sharif and beyond.
What guides us
Our values
Craftsmanship
Every recipe is checked by hand and by taste, not just by machine — the standard hasn't changed since 1993.
Integrity
We stand behind what's in our food. No shortcuts, no quiet substitutions.
Family roots
We started as a family business, and it still runs like one — for our staff, our distributors, and the households we bake for.
Community
Herat's wheat, Herat's workers, Herat's pride — we grow with the community that built us.
