We're a team of food makers and artisans in Oakland, California obsessed with making delicious foods. We handcraft plant-based foods for people who love to eat well. We put our whole hearts into Hodo because we don’t want to be a healthy alternative to your favorite food. We want to be your favorite food. Period.

To us, if the food isn’t delicious, it doesn’t matter how healthy it is. That’s why we only make plant-based foods you’ll love, whether you’re a meat-eater, a vegan, or anything in between. 

The Hodo team works hard every day to create the most delicious foods imaginable. And while our flavors are rich and complex, making lunch or dinner with Hodo is simple. Just pop open a package, and you'll have an amazing meal in just minutes (if not seconds!).

OUR PROCESS

It starts with the ingredients we use. Everything we make uses fresh, certified organic beans and plants are grown on American farms we know and trust. In the Hodo kitchen, our team handcrafts our foods using traditional methods and a ton of love and care. That means good things for you, like the fact that our tofu has 50% more protein than others you’ve tried. It’s also why our products are so much better than anything else out there: ridiculously fresh, amazing texture, and rich, complex flavors that will forever change the way you experience plant-based foods.

Today, Hodo is one of the most original and sought after plant-based brands in the US. But Vietnamese refugee Minh Tsai never expected he’d be running such a company. Minh simply decided to make the delicious, organic artisan foods he grew up eating in Vietnam but found elusive in the US. He started with one farmer’s market stand in the San Francisco Bay Area 15 years ago.

Through innovating his own take on wholesome, traditional methods, Hodo products quickly became must-have ingredients for renowned chefs. Now, Hodo is found in ingredient-driven restaurants from Chipotle to Benu and Daniel, and in thousands of retail stores nationwide including Whole Foods Markets and Target.
