FAQs

Select Omsom products can be found at various retailer partners. Check out our store finder to find a location near you!

If you are on a mission for a specific Omsom product, we recommend calling a store directly to find out what they carry from Omsom.

Don’t worry, you can still purchase all products directly from us on our site! We hope to bring more of our products into retail in the near future.

We so appreciate your support in spreading our story + sharing our products - and that’s the best way to get our name out there. Tell your local store manager you’d love for them to carry Omsom! 

Great question! As a brand that’s been very vocal about the “ethnic” aisle’s shortcomings, being sold here feels bittersweet.

On one hand, this is the reality of institutions like grocery stores. There are systems and categorizations set in place for generations, and we’re trying our best to find our way within them.

On the other hand, we’re deeply grateful to be nationally distributed + to reach Americans across the country. There is such an amazing opportunity for our emerging, WOC-led brand to shake the aisle up from inside. We won’t stop talking about the need to diversify the American grocery store and debunking the tropes that paint the legacy of Asian American food - that it’s cheap, unhealthy, or so ‘exotic’ that it can’t be eaten weekly. This is just the beginning. Thanks for being along for the ride.

If you are seeking a return, the best place to take it is to the store you purchased it from. However, we always appreciate customer feedback - so feel free to email us at orders@omsom.com.

Please reach out to wholesaleorders@omsom.com to share what you’re looking for!

All Omsom sauce products are made in the United States. For our Saucy Noodle line, our air-dried, knife-shaved noodles are crafted in the Fujian Province in China.

We work tirelessly to make sure our products are 100% of the highest quality and 100% damn delicious!

We reject common short-cuts and substitutes in mass market R&D by regularly sampling from 15+ suppliers for a single ingredient, importing 90+% of our specialty ingredients directly from Asia that aren’t currently being brought in by any other food brands, and working with our Tastemaker chefs with generational roots in these flavors.

It is important to us that we honor Asian dishes, cuisines, and communities through our products with cultural integrity. With that mission in mind, Omsom has partnered with “Tastemakers'' to craft all Omsom products. Our Tastemakers are Asian American chefs + culinary experts in specific cuisines who, like us, have connections to these flavors that run deep.

They’re not just Omsom ambassadors - our Tastemakers are involved every step of the way. From collaborating on R&D to advising us on recipes, Omsom deeply + regularly integrates their perspectives + inputs throughout the product development journey.

In exchange for their hard work, creativity, and expertise, the Tastemakers receive a royalty fee - meaning they earn a cut of sales of all products they helped develop. We firmly believe that rising tides raise all boats, and that is reflected in our collaboration with our Tastemakers. 

For Saucy Noodles, we worked with the following talent to bring each product to life:

- Coconut Lemongrass Curry - Chefs Chaht Suansilphong + Dustin Everett of Fish Cheeks

- Soy Garlic - Ewa and Jeromy Ko of Nom Life

- Garlic Black Pepper - Chef Helen Nguyen of Saigon Social

Omsom is founded by Vanessa and Kim Pham, first-generation Vietnamese sisters and daughters of refugees. Our mission is to reclaim + celebrate Asian American flavors + stories so often diluted on the mainstream. You can learn more about the Pham sisters here. 

"om sòm" is a Vietnamese phrase meaning noisy, rambunctious, and riotous. It was most often used by Vietnamese parents (hint: Mama and Papa Pham) to scold unruly, raucous children like us. Omsom owns this loud and rowdy spirit proudly - through our bold flavors + uncompromised storytelling.

Our lil’ team is always growing. Feel free to check out our careers page for any openings! You can also always email us at phamsisters@omsom.com if you don’t see a perfect fit.
