Himalayan Snax & Noodles Private Limited (HSNPL) was established in October 2000 in technical collaboration with Thai President Foods Plc of Thailand – providing manufacturing technology expertise to HSNPL. The founding objective was to produce instant noodles under the "Mayos" brand. The Company’s first Head Office was located at Kathmandu, while the first factory was inaugurated at Banepa, Kavrepalanchowk District – 30 km east from Kathmandu city. The plant is furnished with state-of-the-art Japanese machinery. HSNPL has plans for expansion of its production facility. As an expansion plan, a second production plant has been installed in the year 2008 at Kamharia VDC, Rupandehi District – 11 km west from Bhairahawa city. Bhairahawa city is well-known as the gateway to the birth place of Lord Buddha, the Lumbini Zone.

HSNPL has been manufacturing various brands of instant noodles, i.e., Mayos, Mayos Shangri-la, Shaka Laka Boom, Ru-Chee, Lekali, J-mee, Hurray, Doharee, Jhilke and Humpty Dumpty. HSNPL understands the need of our valued consumers and converts them into reality.

In a short period of time, the company has been able to achieve a leading market share in Nepal.

In addition, the achievement of national and international certifications, i.e. Nepal Standard (NS 138), ISO 9001:2000, SFA membership has created the highest confidence in our products.

HSNPL plans for diversifying into production of other snack items in future. Manufacturing of Cheese Balls under the brand name of Mayos Munchy have already been introduced to the market and still some other plans are under progress.
