About Us
Thailand Unique is a trading name of JR Unique Foods Ltd., Part. Established in 2003, Thailand Unique offers one of S.E. Asia's largest selection of edible insects and bug-related products for the retail and wholesale markets. We also offer raw ingredients for international food manufacturers and white label (OEM) products for private retailers.
Our factory headquarters is located 560km's north of Bangkok near the Laos border in a city called Udon Thani, Thailand. We have an international management team consisting of British, Swiss and Thai nationalities, and 10 full-time production staff. Our product line is constantly growing by popular demand and has been well-received by customers and companies internationally.
Thailand Unique is the go-to site for the world’s growing numbers of entomophagists – humans who consume insects – given their health benefits, as recently documented by the FAO. In fact, over 1,000 species of insects are known to be eaten in over 80% of the world’s nations. These folks know how to get their vitamins and lysine, courtesy of Mother Nature.
We believe that edible insects are the food of the future and we are proud to be part of this revolution. Our food products fortified with insect protein powder contain all the nutritional goodness of bugs without looking like them: for example soy-insect textured meat in ready meals, crackers, pasta, protein shakes, oils and many more items in the development process.
Our products are completely natural and contain no artificial flavors, preservatives or colours. We are GMP, HACCP and BRC certified.
Other quality products from the region can be found on the site, including our own branded products such as cricket protein powder, scorpion vodka, insect chilli oils and insect candy.
Thailand Unique has come a long way since its humble beginnings offering a few lines of packaged bugs. Many new, exciting, and definitely unique food products will be rolling off our lines in the near future.
So please check back often to see what’s new, and feel free to contact us anytime with your comments or questions. We don’t mind being bugged – in fact, it’s our job!
