Nestled in one of Thailand’s most fertile tamarind-growing regions, the company is dedicated to promoting locally sourced, natural tamarind products for both domestic and international markets.

Core Business and Product Portfolio

  • Sweet Tamarind
  • Dried Tamarind

• Other Agricultural Products:

  • Select agricultural raw materials (custom-supplied for export and food processing use)

These products are used extensively in cooking, confectionery, health beverages, and natural remedies due to tamarind’s high antioxidant and vitamin content.

• Natural Processing Methods: Emphasis on traditional sun-drying, seed removal, and paste creation techniques without preservatives.
• Customization for Export: Ability to fulfill varied packaging and product specifications for international clients.

This positions the company as a preferred partner for organic and health-food product distributors.
