Our Story



SO+KA Pantry Co.

Picture this: Two food-obsessed souls, one shared passion, and a worldwide quest for flavour. That's us - Sophia and Kaan, the dynamic husband-and-wife duo behind SOKA PANTRY CO. 👋

Our love story? It's seasoned with years of high-end hospitality experience and sprinkled with an insatiable appetite for culinary adventures. We're those people who plan their travels around food (guilty as charged! ✈️), chasing authentic flavours from Seoul's sizzling street markets to Istanbul's aromatic spice bazaars. These aren't just destinations on a map - they're the very places that shaped our culinary DNA!

🌏 East Meets West, Love Meets Flavour 🌍 With roots deeply planted in Asian and Middle Eastern cultures, we're like flavor matchmakers, bringing the world's most exciting tastes to your kitchen. Think of us as your culinary tour guides, minus the jet lag!

But here's where the plot thickens... 🌶️

We had a problem. A delicious, spicy problem.

You see, we're olive oil enthusiasts (okay, maybe slightly obsessed 🫒), and we couldn't find a single chilli oil that matched our dreams. Everything on the market was swimming in vegetable oil and MSG. Not exactly what we had in mind for our perfect pantry.

So, we did what any food-loving couple would do - we rolled up our sleeves and created our own! After countless (and we mean COUNTLESS) test batches, late-night tasting sessions, and "just one more try" moments, we finally cracked the code.

Enter: Our signature Crunchy Chilli Oil. 🔥

This isn't your grandmother's chilli oil (sorry, Grandma!). We're talking about a perfectly balanced, olive oil-based creation that makes taste buds dance and foodies swoon. It's aromatic, it's crunchy, and it's definitely not playing by the traditional rules.

SOKA PANTRY CO. isn't just a brand - it's our love letter to flavor seekers and food adventurers. Every jar is crafted with the same passion that drove us to explore the world's kitchens, and the same commitment to quality that made us perfectionists in the first place.
