Why Is Bokksu Market the Best Online Asian Market?

May 13, 2024by Bokksu Staff

Gone are the days when you actually had to travel overseas to find Asian food and household items. The emergence of physical Asian grocery stores and supermarkets in countries like the United States means you can enjoy the same foods and products in places outside of Asia. And it gets even better.

Today, you don’t even have to leave your couch to get access to Asian products. All you need to do is place an order on an online Asian market, and you can have traditional sweets, snacks, drinks, instant meals, sauces, and household items delivered to your door from countries like China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia. In this post, we’ll explore the best online Asian market in the United States, Bokksu Market, and why we’re the most reliable source of authentic Asian food and products.

New products are added weekly, further expanding the store’s already wide range of Asian products.

A Wide Range of Authentic Asian Products

One of the reasons for Bokksu Market’s fast-growing popularity is the extensive selection of Asian food and products available. Each item is sourced from reputable sources and vetted to ensure quality, authenticity, and freshness. Below is a list of the different products we sell on our online Asian market:

Quality Assurance: Sourcing the Best from Asian Food Markets

Bokksu Market ensures the quality and authenticity of products by sourcing them directly from reputable suppliers in Asian countries. Even the local specialty snacks and sweets come from family-owned businesses that don’t ship overseas. This is possible thanks to the vast supply chain network established by Danny Taing and the rest of the Bokksu team. The company also double-checks every product in stock to guarantee its freshness and quality.

Folks at Bokksu Market truly believe that the customer is always right. Hence, there’s a dedicated team monitoring customer reviews and comments on all products to make sure they’re satisfying the needs of the buyers.

You can also pair them with other foods and drinks for an elevated experience. Check out Bokksu Market’s complete Asian snacks and sweets collection.

Traditional Asian Groceries for Authentic Cooking

Bokksu Market also offers a wide range of traditional Asian groceries for home cooks. These ingredients and foods will allow you to create meals that most people can’t dream of enjoying anywhere but in Asia. If you’re a fan of traditional dishes like kimchi, ramen, miso soup, and malatang, then you can make your favorite dish in the United States thanks to the ingredients on our Asian market. Some of the most popular products in the store fall into the category of premium sauces from Asia. Depending on the type (hot or soy sauce), these condiments will add savory or spicy flavors to your Asian recipes as ingredients, dippings, or toppings. Other must-have Asian groceries are spices, seasonings, glutinous rice, vinegar, and other items in the pantry collection.

Exclusive and Unique Products You Can't Find Elsewhere

You can find several exclusive and unique items that set Bokksu Market apart from other Asian markets. Our team of culinary experts from abroad created these products, which have flavors and features that no other product in the world can offer customers. For instance, the Bokksu White Strawberry is the world’s first strawberry infused with chocolate, and no other store has the rights to reproduce or resell it. It’s produced in Nagano, Japan, using the artisanal chocolate-making methods of the region. Another product that’s exclusive to our Asian market is the Bokksu Tinned Shirasu Anchovies with Cod Roe, which brings umami-rich flavors to any home-cooked meal.

Bokksu Tinned Shirasu Anchovies with Cod Roe

These shirasu (anchovies) are caught fresh in Miyazaki Port and preserved using cottonseed oil and savory mentaiko (cod roe). This combination is a true Japanese delicacy with its buttery-rich umami flavor profile. This versatile source of protein, Vitamin E, and calcium is fantastic on onigiri and tamagoyaki omelets.

Common Allergens: Fish.

Supporting Local Asian Producers and Brands

By bringing the products of Asian producers and brands to consumers in the US, Bokksu Market has successfully expanded the reach of these businesses. Some of them are small, family-owned enterprises that would otherwise have no way of selling their products overseas. Bokksu Market’s dedication to promoting cultural authenticity means that any Asian brand that sells quality products can now grow their customer base by selling through Bokksu Market.

Convenience of Shopping Online at Bokksu Market

Many people prefer to shop at an online Asian market like Bokksu Market rather than a physical grocery store, which makes a lot of sense when you consider the convenience you get with online shopping. For one, local Asian markets are not as common in the US as regular grocery stores, so shopping online saves you long trips to the store. The only problem people may have with buying from online Asian markets is the issue of deliveries taking a week or more. Thankfully, with Bokksu Market's fast delivery and dependable distribution network, that never happens when you shop online.

Faster Delivery with Multiple Warehouse Locations

Bokksu Market's warehouse distribution network allows customers to enjoy faster delivery than any other Asian market in the country. With multiple warehouse locations across the US, the company can deliver your order within 24 hours. Depending on the state, available shipping options are 1-day (or next-day) delivery, 2-day delivery, and shipping in 3-5 business days. Please note that shipping time will ultimately depend on your location, but rest assured that Bokksu Market delivers nationwide within the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. You also get free shipping when you order over a certain threshold (currently $59). If you have questions about Bokksu Market’s shipping, visit the FAQ page or reach out to customer service.

Customer-Centric Service: Why Bokksu Market Stands Out

At Bokksu Market, customer satisfaction is the priority, even after a sale. Hence, all products and site features are added to achieve this goal. You can enjoy premium customer service and support for free by sending an email or using the live chat feature. Bokksu Market also offers a seamless order tracking and management system so you know exactly where your order is at all times. Unlike other Asian markets, Bokksu Market makes it easy for a verified shopper to leave a review and comment after getting their order. Consequently, other customers can make their buying decisions faster with the help of these product reviews.

Why Bokksu Market is the Ultimate Asian Store Online

No other online Asian store is as focused on convenience, authenticity, and transparency as Bokksu Market. Shopping on our platform is a breeze, as you can easily view products based on type, regional cuisine, brand, and flavor. People with dietary restrictions can also filter for gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, and dairy-free products. We also source items directly from Asian businesses to ensure authenticity. Visit Bokksu Market’s online shop and start adding quality Asian groceries and food to your cart. After tasting our products, be sure to leave a review, telling others how much you loved it!
