Our Story
The story of our snacks continues...
Welcome to Mamayara Nuts, where tradition meets exceptional taste in the heart of Sulaymaniyah. Nestled in the charming Mamayara neighborhood, right by the iconic Mamayara Hill — a landmark beloved for its role in Kurdish Newroz celebrations — we have been crafting premium cheresat and snacks since 1982.
Our story began with a simple passion: to bring the finest roasted nuts and seeds to our community. Today, "The story of our snacks continues..." as we honor that legacy with the same dedication to quality and freshness. Every batch is carefully selected and roasted with care, using only the highest quality ingredients sourced locally and from around the world.
From buttery American almonds to our signature mixes, each bite captures the warmth of gatherings with family and friends. Our products are more than snacks; they are a celebration of local pride and the simple joy of sharing. We take pride in being a part of life's sweetest moments — from festive celebrations under the open sky to cozy everyday indulgences at home.
At Mamayara Nuts, quality isn't just a promise; it's our heritage. We believe in doing things the right way: slow roasting for deeper flavor, premium sourcing, and a personal touch that you can taste in every handful. Come experience the difference that comes from generations of expertise and a deep love for our land and its flavors. Fresh. Premium. Unforgettable. A taste you'll never get enough of.
