K.L. Interfood Co., Ltd.

K.L. Interfood Co., Ltd. is a Thai manufacturer and exporter of tamarind products based in Lomkao District, Phetchabun Province, in the heart of Thailand's sweet tamarind growing region. Together with its affiliated manufacturer K.C. Food & Beverage Co., Ltd., the group describes itself as the world's largest group of companies that manufacture and export all kinds of tamarind products worldwide. The business was established in 2000, when its founder identified the distinctive natural sweetness of Thai tamarind fruit and began introducing Thai sweet tamarind to international markets, starting with the United States and then France. The company's product range spans four main groups: fresh tamarind (both sweet varieties such as Sithong and Kunti, and sour tamarind), tamarind paste (with seed and seedless, including a saline version), processed tamarind (tamarind balls, chewy tamarind, glazed tamarind, savoury tamarind, sweet-and-sour tamarind, dried sweet tamarind and dried seedless tamarind), and pickled tamarind (tamarind in syrup and honey, and dried honey tamarind). These products are marketed under the K.L. Interfood brand and exported through K.L. Interfood, while the affiliated K.C. Food & Beverage handles manufacturing. K.C. Food & Beverage Co., Ltd. was established in 2000 in Lomkao District, Phetchabun, and specializes in farming, manufacturing, trading and developing both sweet and sour tamarind products. Its cool-room facility can store 4,000 tons of tamarind per year. The company sources fresh tamarind from its own Global G.A.P.-certified farm, which covers over 800,000 square meters in Lomkao District, and applies a steaming process before export to eliminate fungal spoilage and insects. Production follows international GMP and HACCP standards. Approximately ninety percent of tamarind products are exported through K.L. Interfood Co., Ltd., with the remainder sold locally in Thailand. The company's stated vision is to manufacture and develop local agricultural products for optimal benefit, to be known domestically and globally, to improve its organization and staff, and to support sustainable living in local communities. Its mission emphasizes high-quality, hygienic and safe products, continuous product development and innovation, customer satisfaction, and sustainable community living. K.L. Interfood has successfully promoted Thai sweet tamarind to more than 40 countries around the world.

K.L. Interfood Co., Ltd. and its affiliated manufacturer K.C. Food & Beverage Co., Ltd. trace their origins to the year 2000, when the founder discovered the unique natural sweetness of Thai tamarind fruit. The company was established in Lomkao District, Phetchabun Province, in the heart of Thailand's sweet tamarind growing region. K.C. Food & Beverage Co., Ltd. was established in 2000 as a manufacturer of all kinds of tamarind products, specializing in farming, manufacturing, trading and developing both sweet and sour tamarind products. In its early years, the company introduced Thai sweet tamarind to the United States of America, followed by France and many other countries. According to the company, initial customers did not believe that the sweetness of Thai tamarind was natural, suspecting that artificial sweeteners had been added. The company attributes the sweetness and special aroma of Thai tamarind to the geography of Phetchabun Province, where tamarind trees produce fruit with a naturally sweet taste and distinctive aroma. Over time, the company successfully promoted Thai sweet tamarind to more than 40 countries around the world. The company operates a tamarind farm covering over 800,000 square meters in Lomkao District, Phetchabun Province, suitable for planting both sweet and sour tamarind. The farm is Global G.A.P. certified. K.C. Food & Beverage's cool-room facility can store 4,000 tons of tamarind on a yearly basis. All tamarinds are treated with a steaming process before export to eliminate fungal spoilage and insects, and production follows international GMP and HACCP standards. Approximately ninety percent of tamarind products are exported through K.L. Interfood Co., Ltd., while the remaining ten percent are sold locally in Thailand. The company's vision is to manufacture and develop local agricultural products for optimal benefits, to be known both domestically and globally, to improve its organization and staff, and to support the sustainable living of local communities. Its mission commits to producing high-quality, hygienic and safe products, continuing product development and innovation, creating customer satisfaction, and creating sustainable living in communities. The company continues to develop and add value to its tamarind product range, which now includes fresh tamarind, tamarind paste, tamarind concentrate, processed tamarind, pickled tamarind and tamarind powder.
