Thai Tapioca Starch Association (TTSA)

Introduction: Thai Tapioca Starch Association was established over 37 years ago, thanks to the initiative of those starch producers who foresaw the importance of having an association as a central body to coordinate efforts among the starch players, and also to promote and support tapioca starch industry in regards to production, marketing and technology, which would consequently benefit the Thai economy as a whole.

The 3 founders of The Thai Tapioca Flour Industries Trade Association comprised Mr. Boonthong Santikarn, Mr. Chairoj Phithayathikun and Mr. Suchat Tangsongcharoen. The license was awarded on April 30, 1976 under the trade Association Act B.E. 2509. The association name was later changed into "Thai Tapioca Starch Association" on June 3, 2002.
