OUR STORY

A warm welcome to Cairovan
North African food on the move!

About Cairovan - camels

My name is Monem, I am a true Brightonian-Cariene mix. I offer a simple menu of 2 wraps beautifully balanced and deliciously flavoured. The foods I serve through the hatches of my Cairovan camper are traditional Egyptian recipes passed down through family from generation to generation.

CAIROVAN PRODUCE & ETHICS

We are blessed to live in such an amazing area where we have some of the tastiest produce right on our door step. As such, all of our ingredients and supplies are sourced from the UK, with many from Sussex itself.

Such amazing produce requires proper care and responsible practices. Being conscious of our environmental impact is one of the fundamental beliefs behind Cairovan.

We strive to be ethical, community-minded and environmentally conscious. Here’s how.

OUR LAMB

All the lamb we use is free range and sourced from Stoneywish, our family farm in East Sussex. My Nephew Michael and his family has been farming this land for five generations and are passionate about animal welfare, with the lambs having acres of land to roam.

We use the legs and shoulders for our slow roasted wraps and the offcuts are made into our spiced chipolatas and kofta.
We do not like to waste anything!

OUR CHICKEN

All our delicious outdoor raised chicken comes from our local village butchers. Family run A Twine Butchers In Hassocks provide us with high quality fresh British chicken. Andrew and his team are passionate about sourcing locally and are always keen to tell us about the farms they work with and source their produce from.

OUR HALLOUMI

All our halloumi comes from the guys at The Cheese Man.
Based in Brighton The Cheese Man are passionate about cheese and fine foods, and as a local family run company they are proud to promote local cheeses.
Ever mindful of food miles and the impact on the environment, they work closely with local cheese makers and have produced a guide to develop local awareness of quality cheeses from the surrounding areas.

OUR EGGS

Our free-range organic eggs are supplied to us by the lovely hens over at The Mac’s Farm. The Mac’s are our amazing farming neighbours in Ditchling. This family are fourth generation organic egg farmers. They really love what they do, and we love it too! Especially when they provide us some seriously tasty double yokers!

OUR BREAD

All of our deliciously soft Khobez bread comes fresh from Rayan Bakery.

Rayan is truly a taste of the traditional middle east in the south east!

Baking high quality breads from the best ingredients, perfectly showcasing our delicious fillings!

OUR FRUIT & VEG

Our incredible Fruit and veg comes from Jeremy Two in Henfield. Run by local Greengrocer Jeremy Shotter who has over 30 years’ experience in the trade.
Many of their suppliers are local which is great for keeping the food miles down, but the real focus is finding quality, independent suppliers. “We like to support small British businesses and you won’t find any of our products in any supermarkets” said Jeremy.

OUR BEANS

When it comes to beans, we team up with Hodmedods, a supplier who source sustainable beans and grains from British farms. They are particularly interested in searching out lesser known foods, like our very own fava beans. With their supply, we create our traditional Egyptian falafel and our hearty breakfast.

OUR PACKAGING

There is no point in having mouth-watering local free-range produce only to serve it in a plastic container! The packaging for our food was chosen specially for the fact that it is fully compostable. We are partnered with Enviropack, a trusted supplier of eco-friendly, disposable food containers from ethical sources.

OUR OIL

To produce our Halloumi Fries and our Falafel, we need a steady supply high quality oil. For this, we are proud to have Olleco supplying our oil. They are a company that turn all of our used waste oil into bio fuel. This not only recycles the oil but stops it from ending up in land fill – truly impressive!
