The founder ( Nicom Kamhangptiyuth ) of the company discovered the White Kwao Krua (known
as Pueraria Mirifica) at his own farm land at Chiang Rai in the Northern Thailand. Where he
learned from his worker that, “If you eat this, your breasts become big!”

Mr. Nicom applied for a scientific result of his Kwao Krua in the Department of Plant Molecular
Biotechnology in United States.

The results stated that Mr.Nicom’s Kwao Krua has a high density of Pueraria Mirifica’s chemical
compounds but the disadvantage of Kwao Krua is that it has a slow growth rate.

Mr. Nicom made a research with the group of biologist to develop biological compound that will
enhance the growth of the Kwao Krua.

The lab team finally came out with a special type of Kwao Krua that resulted in fast growth rate
and Mr.Nicom started the first systematic plantation, at 2000 acre land in Chiang Rai province, and becoming the only high premium type of Pueraria Mirifica farm in the world. With great efforts of maintaining the
farm in the natural farming way, Mr.Nicom organized a group of biologists to find a perfect way to
extract out the Pueraria Mirifica to be used in cosmetics.
