Happy Birthday to our dad—the founder of International Foods.
Your story is one of courage, perseverance, and faith. You came to America from Lebanon with very little, but with a dream, an incredible work ethic, and the determination to build a better future for your family.
In 1983, that dream became International Foods. What started with hard work, sacrifice, and countless long days has grown into something far greater than a grocery store. You’ve built a place where cultures come together, traditions are celebrated, and generations of families have shopped for decades. You taught us that success comes from honesty, hard work, and treating every customer like family.
Everything we have today is because of the foundation you built. Your resilience, integrity, and generosity continue to inspire us every day, and we are honored to carry forward the legacy you created.
Happy Birthday to the man who started it all. We are endlessly proud to call you our dad, and we pray this year brings you continued health, happiness, and God’s abundant blessings.
We love you beyond words.
With all our love,�Your Daughters & Son — The Next Generation of International Foods 💕
