History
The Coconut Kitchen range of authentic Thai sauces and curry pastes were originally developed from the dishes served in The Coconut Kitchen restaurant.
The original co-founders started the business in Abersoch, North Wales in 2007. They had great success over 11 years, winning “Best Oriental Restaurant Award” at the Food Award Wales, 2 years running.
In 2018, they decided to focus their energies on creating cooking sauces and curry pastes for retail, and the restaurant was sold. Since then, The Coconut Kitchen brand has grown to offer 15 products and has 12 Great Taste Awards. The best-selling Thai Curry pastes are also available for Foodservice.
The mission for the brand has always been to offer the best Thai sauces, made with the best ingredients. Also, importantly, to make it very easy for the consumer, or the professional chef, to create truly authentic Thai dishes while cutting down food miles. All their products are proudly made in Wales.
The initial range of sauces and pastes in The Coconut Kitchen range were developed from the very popular dishes that were served at the beginning of this culinary journey in 2006 when The Coconut Kitchen restaurant first opened its doors. The original co-founders Paul and Preechaya first started the business in a food truck in a caravan site in the seaside town of Abersoch, North Wales. It was a roaring success and the restaurant was opened a year later. For 11 years The Coconut Kitchen served up very happy, regular customers at the 40-seater seaside location and won the coveted “Best Oriental Restaurant Award” at the Food Award Wales, 2 years running.
Meanwhile, due to popular demand Paul and the other chef’s began creating and bottling the stir-fry sauces and curry pastes so customers could their favourite dishes at home.
Using only the best quality, natural and authentic Thai ingredients, the sauces, pastes, marinades and meal kits, became so popular they were soon selling out online and winning awards of their own.
