In 2018, I embarked on a life-changing journey, moving to Vietnam to teach English in the land my parents once called home. This decision was more than a career move—it was a leap of faith, driven by a desire to reconnect with my roots, deepen my understanding of Vietnamese culture, and strengthen bonds with both family and the local community. Through this experience, I hoped to forge meaningful relationships and immerse myself in the rich traditions that shaped my identity.

After leaving Vietnam in 2019, I returned in 2023, and over time, I discovered something incredible—the vast array of prized goods Vietnam had to offer, especially its dried fruits, which were virtually unknown in the U.S. market. These fruits were more than just a product; they were a symbol of Vietnam’s agricultural pride, tradition, and craftsmanship. I saw an opportunity to share these authentic, high-quality products with a broader audience in the U.S., where they could be appreciated for their uniqueness and flavor.

By bringing Vietnam’s prized dried fruits to the U.S., we are showcasing the beauty and richness of Vietnam to the world. This endeavor not only reconnects me with my roots but also helps bridge the gap between two cultures, offering American consumers a taste of Vietnam’s finest delicacies.
