Skymarket
has expanded its business operation by launching a range of
authentic Thai curry sauces which are made in Thailand for the UK
catering industry.
Building
on his 22-year experience as the owner of the award winning Thai
House in Cardiff, Noi Ramasut has again proved himself to be a
pioneer in the business and an ambassador for Thai cuisine by putting
a high-quality product within easy reach of the catering industry.
Since
opening The Thai House with his Welsh wife Arlene in 1985, the Thai
restaurant sector has grown from 5 to 1,500. Noi supplies many of
them with fresh, authentic ingredients, including Thai herbs, spices
and vegetables, through Skymarket, which was set up seven years ago
to help build and maintain high standards in the market.
Also
as chair of the Thai UK Restaurateurs Association for three years,
Noi worked closely with the Royal Thai Embassy to establish criteria
by which Thai restaurants could be acknowledged for high standards of
cuisine. The Thai Select award is now presented annually by the
Ambassador to those top restaurants which meet the standard.
Now
Noi has achieved another important step in bringing high quality
Thai food to mainstream British eateries including pubs, cafes, work
place canteens and universities. He explained: "With the
enormous growth in the popularity of Thai food, my wife and I sampled
Thai dishes in pubs, hotels and cafes the length and breadth of the
country and were not impressed at what was being labelled as Thai
food. So we decided to do something about it. Following 18 months of
dedication by Skymarket and our producers in Thailand, we have come
up with a product which we are all really proud of."
So
proud, in fact, that Noi has branded the products under The Thai
House name.
Noi
continued: "Thai House Ready Made Curry Sauces are made with
natural ingredients to EU specifications by producers who have been
working with us for a number of years. The range of four well-known
sauces - red curry with bamboo shoots, red curry with pineapple,
traditional green curry and massaman curry, come in cans of 10
portions for optimum cost control and can be produced from the
kitchen to the customer in four easy steps. With the different
combinations of main ingredients, the Thai House sauces must come as
a blessing for all those establishments which want to offer real Thai food."
Thai
House Curry Sauces were officially launched at the World Food Market
Exhibition at Ex-Cel in London last month (21-22 November), with
early feedback from the catering industry being very positive.
