    Irvins Salted Egg expands into the US via DTC route

    Singaporean cult snack brand Irvins Salted Egg has expanded online in the US and launching at several Asian specialty stores including 99 Ranch, Seafood City and H Mart.

    The popular brand, which has a cult following in Singapore and Hong Kong, especially, has pop-up style brick-and-mortar stores and sell-through in nine Asian countries. By going online it has taken a direct-to-consumer approach to competing with American snack brands.

    In Australia, it is sold through the e-commerce site Snack Affair.

    “We are ecstatic about our expanded availability in the US. Irvins Salted Egg products bring a distinctive flavor and premium quality to the American snack food market, and we look forward to earning a place in the conversation as more people can try our product,” said Yosuke Yazawa, Irvins chips business development manager of North America.

    Irvins will offer flavors online such as Salted Egg Potato Chips, Spicy Salted Egg Potato Chips, Salted Egg Cassava Chips, Spicy Salted Egg Cassava Chips and Salted Egg Crunchy Roll.

    The salted-egg flavored chips are made in Singapore using Asian flavors such as the salted duck egg yolk, curry leaves, and red chilli pepper without preservatives.

    Irvins Salted Egg snacks make Manila debut

    Irvins Salted Egg snack store from Singapore has opened its first Philippines outlet, in Metro Manila.

    On the ground floor of SM Mega Fashion Hall, the shop sells the brand’s signature snacks: salted egg fish skins and salted egg potato chips.

    Owner Irvin Gunawan says he decided to open a store in the Philippines after seeing the great response to the snacks from Filipinos in Singapore. His hunch was right, as on its first day the Manila store had a queue throughout the morning.

    Gunawan says other branches will come, the first before year’s end.
