Our Product
Non-GMO ears harvested at peak tenderness from Ratchaburi's alluvial fields, cold-chain shipped to your door within 72 hours of harvest.
What Is Baby Corn
Baby corn is an immature ear of Zea mays — the same maize plant that produces full-grown corn — harvested 3 to 4 days after the silk first emerges. At this stage the cob is 4–9 cm long, fully edible husk-to-core without shucking, and has a delicate sweet crunch that disappears if the ear is left to mature further.
Thailand is the world's largest exporter of fresh baby corn, with Ratchaburi Province — where our farms are located — recognized as a premium growing region due to its fertile alluvial soil, reliable water supply and year-round warm climate. Ratchaburi baby corn commands a price premium in Taiwanese, Singaporean and Hong Kong wholesale markets because of its consistent size grading and bright natural colour.
Top System Groups Co. Ltd. sources exclusively from vetted Ratchaburi growers we have worked with for over a decade, ensuring every shipment meets the same standard your buyers expect.
