The Story of Bokksu
The Story of Bokksu
Our Founder
After living in Japan, founder Danny Taing fell in love with the delicious local snacks he had discovered.
In 2015...
Danny came back to the US with a suitcase full of snacks to share. His friends and family agreed: the snacks were amazing, but no one could find them in America. Many of the snacks were local specialties made by family businesses that didn’t sell overseas. So Danny decided to change that.
Continuing our mission
Since 2016 Bokksu has grown from Danny packing boxes himself in his living room to a fast-growing company offering much more than a monthly subscription box.

Q & A with Danny
I've tasted over a thousand snacks by now, but my absolute favorite is still the White Strawberry from Nagano Prefecture for its crunchy, tart, and not-too-sweet flavors.
