Startup CPG Newswire:
Yaza Tzatziki Hits Over 500 Stores

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Christian Karim Khalil for Yaza

ATLANTA, GA (APRIL 2026)— Yaza announced that its Tzatziki is now available in more than 500 retail locations across the country, with distribution growing week over week and strong early consumer demand. The Tzatziki is already on shelves at Pop Up Grocer, Jewel-Osco, Safeway, Acme, and Woodman’s, with King’s, Balducci’s, and Earth Fare set to carry it within the coming weeks.

Yaza Tzatziki is built differently. It’s the only Tzatziki on the market made with 100% Greek yogurt, no milk powders, no fillers, no shortcuts. The result is a dip that’s extra creamy, packed with protein, and tastes exactly like what you’d find at a great Mediterranean restaurant. Cool, garlicky, and ready in zero seconds.

“We built Yaza Tzatziki to taste like the real thing, because it is the real thing. Real Greek yogurt, real ingredients, made the right way. No compromises.” — Christian Karim Khalil, Founder and CEO, Yaza

The retail momentum reflects growing consumer demand for Mediterranean flavors that don’t require a trip to a specialty store or a recipe with a long ingredient list. Yaza Tzatziki sits in the refrigerated dip aisle alongside hummus and other spreads, but it’s in a category of its own. Where most competitors rely on milk powders and stabilizers to cut costs, Yaza uses whole Greek yogurt as its base, delivering a creamier texture and a noticeably higher protein content per serving with 3.5 grams per ounce compared to the typical competitor’s 1 to 2 grams. Early results show the product is driving standout velocity in the refrigerated dip set, with strong repeat purchase signaling that shoppers are coming back.

Yaza was founded on a simple idea: Mediterranean flavors shouldn’t be complicated. Dip it, spread it, drizzle it, dollop it. Yaza Tzatziki goes on everything from pita and grain bowls to rotisserie chicken and grilled vegetables. Big Mediterranean flavor. Zero fuss.

With distribution growing by the week and positioned for continued expansion based on strong in-store performance, Yaza is well-positioned to reach additional markets in 2026. The brand’s full line of Mediterranean dips, including Labneh, Baba Ghanouj, and Muhammara, is also available alongside Tzatziki nationwide via select UNFI, KeHE and direct distribution.
