About Us

Hey there! This is Elisa and Jonathan of the ShanYi Meals Creative Team. Thank you for coming to hear more about our company’s story. 

We’ve always been foodies - and especially passionate when it comes to Asian cuisine. We’ve loved eating Japanese, Thai, Chinese, Korean, and Indian food with family and friends since we were kids. Sitting around a table at home and sharing a meal has always been a bonding experience for us. Food has always been an aspect in our lives that’s made our mind and bodies happy. 

In our opinion, eating well and enjoying every meal is essential to life – but we know how hard that is to actually do in practice. It’s not easy to make time to prepare a home-cooked meal and enjoy it every night. Between jobs, school, household chores, parenting and more…so many of us end up forgetting to eat properly. We forget to take care of ourselves. 

The past 10 years, we’ve been small business owners without time to cook for ourselves and our families. Eating out too often was expensive as well. 

So we tried all kinds of instant foods. But variety was limited. Many were unhealthy. Others needed to be refrigerated or frozen. Perhaps most importantly, none of them tasted amazing.  

We felt helpless – but we were also inspired. So we set out to create tastier and healthier instant foods. We focused on bringing traditional, unique, and nutritious food that could be prepared within a few minutes.

Manufacturing

After 2 years of hard work to develop authentic Asian instant meals, Shanyi was born! For taste and ingredients, we carefully partnered with one of the biggest seafood companies in Thailand to bring you gourmet dishes that you expect to find at top restaurants. ShanYi instant meals are crafted from innovative recipes, and with fresh and natural ingredients such as wild-caught salmon and tuna. The advanced production technology makes it possible to store all-natural, no-preservative food at ambient temperature. You can stuff it in your backpack, take it on the subway, or keep it at the office with ease. 

With so many favorable comments from our customers, we have even more motivation to innovate with dishes! This journey will always be about our respect and love for food. It’s our hope that it’s easier for everyone to eat healthier too.
