Konjac FAQs
About our Konjac products.
They Originate from Thailand.
During our initial 3 months, we sourced them directly from China. After much research and trying the different konjac products, we found an alternative and reliable supplier that was based in Thailand that had the same aligned goals as us, that is quality and health over profit. We tried their products and the products we first brought in from China. The difference was significant which is why ever since then we only trusted our current supplier from Thailand.
