Mya Ayer Company is a family business operating since 1986. A veteran in
the coconut oil industry, it has been supplying products to the domestic
market. Since 2016, the company has been innovating and diversifying its
product line with high end organic extra virgin coconut oils. It has
expanded its business, adheres to high professional and ethical
standards and has rebuilt its production facilities in line with
international requirements.
Myanmar coconut has its own specific qualities: the coconut water is
refreshingly fruity and tangy and less sweet than other varieties.
Growing coconut palms is a virgin industry, in naturally-growing stands
without any commercial plantations to threaten natural ecosystems and
sustainable forestry.
We want to build from this situation of unspoiled nature and create
sustainable business for smallhold farmers, developing a coconut
paradise on Man-Aung Island .
Mya Ayer's founder, Mr Soe Myint, is still active as chairman of the
company. Managing Director Mr Ye Htut Htake has completed studies in the
UK.
While modernizing and adapting to international requirements, we have
kept the foundations of our business intact: a focus on quality and a
commitment to our people. We are a family business including our
suppliers and workers. Myanmar comes late into international markets. We
see this as an opportunity to pioneer new business models, combining
value for the customer with ecological standards and welfare for farmers
and workers.
Our business is responsible and we support CSR projects in education,
training, healthcare and disaster relief. Our projects have been
endorsed by international organizations in Myanmar.
