Mama O's

Mama O's Premium Kimchi was an accident. Kheedim Oh never intended to start a company, he just needed some kimchi. His parents (Mama & Papa O) lived a couple hundred miles away so going over to bum a jar was not convenient. The kimchi options in stores (mostly Asian markets) tasted terrible, were full of unnecessary ingredients, or both. So he asked Mama O to teach him how to make kimchi. Kheedim took the Chinatown bus to DC many times to make batches of kimchi to bring back to NYC. Most of the kimchi was shared with friends, and occasional strangers, who eventually encouraged Kheedim to make his product available to a larger community. Mama O's has come a long way since making batches of kimchi in the basement. They hired some fantastic individuals and began producing kimchi for local restaurants, bodegas, and grocery stores. They have a production facility in Brooklyn, New York and now you can find Mama O's nationally and internationally. One thing that will never change is their commitment to quality. Mama O's strives to make the best they can every time. They are dedicated to constantly improving our products and processes while holding on to their traditional hand crafted roots.
