Laitiger Nuts Numbosapee Kanpanich Limited Partnership, based in Pang Mapha, Mae Hong Son province of Thailand, is a regional enterprise focused on the production and processing of premium-quality peanuts and nut-based snacks. Nestled in the highlands of Northern Thailand, the company capitalizes on the area’s ideal growing conditions and traditional farming methods to produce tiger-striped peanuts that are distinctive in appearance, taste, and nutritional profile.

Core Business and Offerings

The company’s operations are centered around peanut cultivation and value-added processing. Key product offerings include:

• Tiger-Striped Peanuts

  • Raw Peanuts: Carefully harvested, sorted, and cleaned for culinary and processing use
  • Roasted Peanuts: Dry-roasted using traditional methods to preserve flavor
  • Salted Peanuts: Lightly salted variants tailored for retail and foodservice consumption

• Nut-Based Snack Products

  • Peanut Bars: Traditional Thai-style snacks with honey and rice flour binders
  • Mixed Nut Snacks: Seasonal assortments featuring cashews, almonds, and tiger peanuts

All products are harvested and processed within the Mae Hong Son region using community-based practices and small-scale manufacturing systems.

Specialization and Core USP

Laitiger Nuts’ unique value lies in its niche focus on tiger-striped peanut varieties, known for their marbled shells and rich, nutty flavor. Core strengths include:

• High-altitude cultivation, enhancing peanut oil content and flavor
• Traditional drying and roasting methods yielding superior texture
• Local farmer integration, promoting ethical sourcing and sustainable income generation
• Minimal processing, appealing to health-conscious consumers seeking clean-label snacks

The company uses a semi-artisanal approach that blends regional know-how with quality assurance steps to meet expanding regional demand.

Financial Performance

Due to its local scale and partnership structure, public financial data is limited. However, community trade estimates and local agricultural board insights suggest:

• Estimated Annual Turnover (2023): THB 5–8 million (~USD 140,000–220,000)
• Production Volume: Approximately 50–80 metric tons of peanuts annually
• Primary Market Channels: Local wholesalers, tourism markets, small domestic retailers

The business is self-funded and operates on a seasonal procurement and sales cycle, aligning with the regional harvest calendar.

Shipment and Distribution

As a domestically focused enterprise, Laitiger Nuts primarily serves local Thai provinces. However, recent efforts to partner with regional logistics cooperatives may enable small-batch international exports via specialty importers.

• Distribution Regions: Mae Hong Son, Chiang Mai, Bangkok, select trade fairs
• Export Readiness: In discussion with trade cooperatives for ASEAN and boutique market distribution

Laitiger Nuts targets:

• Health food and traditional snack consumers
• Specialty food retailers and tourism-focused vendors
• Organic and artisanal product aggregators

The product appeal lies in natural flavor, unique visual traits, and origin transparency.
