weβre not going anywhere - Omsom will operate independently within DDC, but with more resources! expect to find more damn delicious Asian products in more stores π
hereβs to the next chapter of proud + loud π₯
we accomplished so much and still, we were not immune to the realities of running a small CPG business π
centering our values + this idea of Asian American abundance showed us the path forward: pursuing an acquisition to get our team the resources we need to keep growing ππ½
since then, our team has launched 10+ damn delicious Asian pantry staples, sold 4.6M+ products, grown a passionate 200k+ community, generated 20B+ press impressions, and paid $100k+ in royalties to Asian American chef partners πͺπ½
proud + loud has always been bigger than us - today weβre excited to announce that Omsom has been acquired by @daydaycooker, a leader in Asian food brands + a fellow Asian woman-run business ππ½
5 years ago, first-gen daughters of viet refugees @kimoftheinternet + @vanessapham quit their jobs on just a mission: to reclaim + celebrate the multitudes in Asian flavors + stories π₯
(this is a video we sent our parents when we first started working on the biz!)

Omsom is now available nationwide at Sprouts Farmers Market π
Omsom is participating in their Forager program β basically a 90-day trial run to see how they perform β so if you see 'em, support 'em if you can.
π¨ BIG NEWS: Omsom just landed in every @sprouts store nationwide...kinda! Here's the tea π
Weβre officially part of what Sprouts calls their βForagers Programβ which means that we're in every store...
For the next 90 days, we will be in a special section of the store marked "New For You" - it's essentially a test run for us! Pending our performance, there's a chance we'll stay on their shelves permanently π€π½
