Our Story

Born from
nangka
— jackfruit

NANKA is a spin-off from nangka, the Malay word for jackfruit. Previously known as Ira Noah, it was started by a couple who believes nutrition and habit are key to addressing lifestyle diseases the world faces today.

Syafik and Amirah set out to create food that checks 3 criteria: delicious, nutritious, and accessible. NANKA believes that good habits start young — so our products primarily cater to children and families.

Backed by investors from Japan, Singapore, and the United States, NANKA is aggressively working toward sustainable food production that caters to human health, animal welfare, and a green environment.

📖 The Name

Our Technology

The science
of jackfruit

We harness jackfruit's natural fibrous texture and neutral flavour profile to craft cutting-edge meat alternatives. Our proprietary processing transforms raw jackfruit into versatile, shelf-stable ingredients that perfectly replicate the mouthfeel of meat.

01
Sustainable Sourcing
Young jackfruit is harvested at peak texture — fibrous and dense, perfect for meat simulation. 100% traceable supply chain.
02
Natural Processing
Our proprietary technique preserves nutrients while developing the ideal texture. No artificial binders, no synthetic additives.
03
Flavour Engineering
We apply traditional Southeast Asian flavour profiles — rendang, curry, sambal — to create products that taste like home.
04
Responsible Packaging
All packaging is designed with a low environmental footprint — working towards fully compostable solutions.
