Grumpy Ginger

Grumpy Ginger has always been a labor of love, born out of my quest for a taste of home and the desire to introduce Malaysian flavors to America. Fast forward to today, Grumpy Ginger had the opportunity to exhibit at the 2024 Winter Fancy Food Show for the very first time to thousands of retailers and attendees from around the world. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the entire SFA team and (Included)CPG) for making this opportunity possible! Seeing people's reactions as they try Grumpy Ginger for the first time is a joy that never gets old and we are humbled by the positive feedback we received! Special shoutout to Victoria Ho, who worked with us tirelessly to ensure our first tradeshow was a success and to Jennifer Cohan for helping us gain visibility. And finally, I’m also grateful to all the other outstanding brands we had the privilege to share the floor with!
