From Grandma’s Recipe to PAK PRIK

A Small Beginning in Nakhon Pathom

Before PAK PRIK became a brand, everything began with Grandma Pranom’s curry paste recipe.

When our parents had to work, most weekdays were spent at Grandma’s house. Spending time with her became a meaningful part of childhood, and the kitchen became one of the places where many of those memories were made.

One of the clearest memories is stir-fried curry paste made by Grandma.

A simple taste that was never really simple.

It was the taste of home, the taste of meals shared around the table, with everyone sitting together.

Curry Paste Was Never Just a Condiment

For Grandma, curry paste was part of making a living. It helped support the family while also becoming knowledge that was passed down from one generation to the next.

The original red curry paste recipe has been made and sold for more than 50 years. Throughout the years, the family has continued to use the same ingredients and maintain the same standards of flavour.

Because we believe that a good taste doesn't have to change with time.

From Grandma’s Recipe to PAK PRIK

As the family grew, a new thought began to take shape:

What if the taste that lives in our family kitchen could travel further?

In 2025, the original family curry paste began expanding into a wider product range, introducing four additional flavours:

  • Green Curry Paste

  • Jungle Curry Paste

  • Southern Sour Curry Paste

  • Sour Curry Paste

But at that time, they still weren't called PAK PRIK.

Then came the idea that our product could go further than we had ever imagined.

And from that idea, PAK PRIK was born.

The name comes from “Pak Kad,” the name of the granddaughter, combined with “Prik,” representing the curry paste that has been at the heart of the family for decades.

PAK PRIK is more than just a brand name.

It brings our family, our memories, and our story together in one name.

From Our Family Kitchen, to Yours

Each PAK PRIK curry paste has a story of its own.

But behind every packet is the same story, a story that began with Grandma, with family, and with recipes made with care for more than half a century.

Today, that story is ready to travel beyond one family's dining table.

From our family kitchen, to yours.

The Same Recipe. The Same Feeling.

Even though our curry paste has now travelled beyond our family kitchen, there is one thing we never want to change: the taste and feeling where it all began.

We use the same ingredients.

We maintain the same standards.

And we keep Grandma's original taste at the heart of everything we make.

Because to us, good food is about more than ingredients or flavour.

It's about the feeling you get when you eat a meal made by someone you love.

It's the aroma that reminds you of home.

And it's the memories that stay with you, no matter how much time passes.

From Our Family Kitchen, to Yours.

Today, PAK PRIK is taking the taste that began in the small family kitchen of Grandma Pranom in Nakhon Pathom and bringing it to people further than we ever imagined.

But no matter how far it travels,

every packet of PAK PRIK carries Grandma Pranom's touch,
the memories of our family,
and more than 50 years of our story inside.

PAK PRIK

From our family kitchen, to yours.
