About Mekhala:
Mekhala (which means “Goddess” in Thai) was born out of the desire for quality, natural products for our own families, while my co-founder and I were mindfully enjoying some relaxing days in contact with nature at her vegan retreat in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
As a working mother, I was frustrated with all the artificial additives and preservatives, and the high amounts of sugar in most Asian store-bought products, but did not have the time to cook from scratch. So I roped in my sister (and current Chief Sauceress), Diane, and we got busy. Inspired by the vegan meals at the retreat, we created a range of clean and flavourful products for ourselves and our customers. After all, why can’t life be delicious, easy and healthy?
We set ourselves to make a difference by contributing to a better life that’s easier, healthier, and tastier for all.
With beautiful ingredients sourced from local farmers, we manufacture our organic, plant-based, clean label and gluten and nut-free Asian inspired food products in Chiang Mai.
In each Mekhala product, not only will you experience exciting flavour combinations made from authentic Asian ingredients, you’ll be tasting the result of mindful cooking and sustainable production practices and you’ll become part of a brand that takes concrete actions in inspiring and empowering women and youths of the Burmese community.
