Suppliers in Vegetable Products & Extracts: Cocoa Powder

In 1899, our founder, Ichitaro Kanie, returned to Japan after completing his duties in the first Sino Japanese war (1894 -1895) and began growing Western vegetables in his family plot. Tomatoes were included among these vegetables, however, the grassy smell and unfamiliar bright red color did not appeal to Japanese consumers. Tomatoes were the only vegetables that did not sell the first four years and were left to rot in the fields causing serious problems. Ichitaro did not give up!

"NP Nutra® was founded in 1998 by two long-time friends, Thomas Walton and Axel Wippich. In its early years the business operated solely as a distributor for noni products: powder, juice and capsules. Initially run by the two friends, a small group of staff was gradually added to handle the administrative, warehousing and distribution areas. In the early 2000’s the company began broadening the range of products offered. Over the years, NP Nutra® has earned an unrivaled reputation as a supplier of new, innovative ingredients, unique to the marketplace.
