016: Miso Tasty’s Bonnie Chung chat about subscriptions, and getting to 1,000 regular customers in under 2 years

September 21, 2015 By Chloë Thomas Leave a Comment

Bonnie Chung runs the UK’s first dedicated Miso brand – and the name? “Miso Tasty”, genius!

She spent 3 years researching to make sure her Miso Soup is the best you can get, and now ships the soup direct customers in letterbox friendly boxes. And of course there is a subscription offer….
She’s now into year two and has over 1,000 regular buyers.

The fascinating story, great content on the website, and superior product mean that as well as wholesaling to Sainbury’s, Selfridges and Whole Foods Markets – Bonnie has built a great following on Social media, and consistently superb PR coverage.
