Yarmouth, Maine, May 16, 2022 – WATCHAREE’S, a leading brand of authentic, ready-to-eat Thai sauces, has entered into a new partnership with Meijer, Inc. to sell its premium quality products in 258 stores across the Midwest with a launch in May for Asian/Pacific-Islander Heritage Month. Meijer will carry the full line of WATCHAREE’S sauces in 9.8 fl. oz. jars, including best-selling Thai peanut sauce and pad Thai sauce, as well as the full range of classic Thai curry sauces – red, yellow, green, coconut, and massaman.

Created by Watcharee Limanon, a recognized Thai culinary artist from Bangkok, WATCHAREE’S sauces embody the best of Thai regional traditions with their diverse cultural influences. All sauces are manufactured in Thailand from fresh traditional ingredients, including aromatic herbs and spices, rich coconut milk, and tamarind.  With WATCHAREE’S sauces, home cooks can recreate the experience of their favorite Thai restaurants, or make their own fusion dishes.
