SONNY'S SPECIALITY PRODUCTS

Our Story

Sonny’s Specialist Products is a family run business and was setup in Aug 2017 by brothers Sonny and Kishin Chugani.

Our story began in late 2016 when a long time customer was sourcing for bamboo straws from Thailand. A search of 6 months resulted in finding out there weren't anyone making them in Thailand.

The thought of losing financially if the customer cancelled his order got us thinking. As bamboo grows abundantly practically everywhere in Thailand, we decided that if we cannot find anyone that makes these bamboo straws. We were going to make them ourselves. 

Since no one was making the straws in Thailand we then began to do some R&D on bamboo and learned on how best to cut these straws, which species to use and how to cure them for a pleasing color tone.

Six months later we finally started making quality bamboo straws in Thailand.

As we continued finding out more information on bamboo straws. This is when we learned about the damaging effect of plastic straws and decided that we were going to promote bamboo straws as alternative to plastic straws and help do our part for the environment.

Thus began the journey into Eco-friendly products and the beginning of Sonny’s Specialist Products.
