Twin Marquis

What Twin Marquis does

Twin Marquis (真味) is a Brooklyn, New York-based manufacturer of fresh Asian noodles, dumplings, and wrappers, founded in 1989 to serve Chinese-American consumers seeking authentic home-cooked food. The company operates a single manufacturing facility at 7 Bushwick Place, Brooklyn, NY, processing 15,000 tons of flour monthly into a broad SKU portfolio that includes raw and heat-treated noodles (Lo Mein, Chow Mein, Udon, Soba, Yakisoba, Shanghai-style, Wonton noodles), boiled Jiaozi and pan-seared Gyoza dumplings, and an extensive wrapper lineup (Hong Kong, Shanghai, Northern, Extra Thin, Egg Roll, and spinach variants), plus a frozen Twist Cruller. The facility is USDA-certified and was the first Asian-food manufacturer in the US to obtain FSSC 22000 Certification from NQA, with dozens of SKUs additionally certified Kosher and Vegan.

The business operates a B2B wholesale model: products are sold coast-to-coast through supermarkets and Asian food distributors (locatable via a "Where to Buy" store locator), directly to restaurants and professional chefs, and through a private-label and custom noodle manufacturing offering for wholesale partners. The company identifies two primary customer segments (Restaurants/Chefs and Retailers/Wholesalers) and a secondary Home Cooks/Consumer segment, with a horizontal segmentation approach. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; wholesale pricing is available via a downloadable product catalog. Twin Marquis also operates a wholly-owned subsidiary, TMI Trading, which distributes bubble tea products and training to foodservice operators, extending into the adjacent beverage category.

Twin Marquis is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Schwan's Company (Schwan's Shared Services, LLC), as evidenced by corporate copyright and Schwan's-hosted privacy and terms notices on the company website. Brand-building activity centers on the Yum Chat documentary series, featuring prominent NYC Asian-American chefs using Twin Marquis products, distributed via Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram, alongside an extensive on-site recipe library. The company maintains no mobile app, no public API, and no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, with operational technology focused on food safety systems, high-volume automated production, and B2B catalog distribution.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Regional players

• Koda Farms: California-based Koda Farms is a multi-generation Asian-American grain and Asian-noodle maker (rice, Asian pastas, mochi) — comparable craft-and-heritage positioning to Twin Marquis, but with a California base and rice-grain orientation.
• Hakubaku USA: Hakubaku is a Japanese premium-noodle maker distributing soba, udon, and ramen-style noodles into the US — directly comparable at the product-category level (udon, soba overlap Twin Marquis's Japanese-style lines) though primarily shelf-stable rather than fresh.

Broad incumbents

• House Foods America: House Foods America is the US arm of Japan's House Foods, producing tofu and Asian noodles/sauces for retail and foodservice — comparable in Asian-product breadth and US foodservice penetration to Twin Marquis, though larger and more diversified.
• Annie Chun's: Annie Chun's is a CJ-affiliated (sister brand under the CJ CheilJedang / Schwan's umbrella that owns Twin Marquis) broader Asian-meals and noodle brand serving mainstream US grocery with noodles, sauces, and bowls — overlapping product categories but at a wider portfolio scale.
• Nissin Foods USA: Nissin's US arm is the category-defining mass-market instant noodle brand (Top Ramen, Cup Noodles) and broader Asian food manufacturer — adjacent rather than direct, but defines competitive pricing and shelf-set expectations against which Twin Marquis's fresh-noodle value must be sold.
• Nongshim USA: Nongshim's US arm distributes Korean instant noodles (Shin Ramyun) and Asian snacks into mainstream US retail — a larger incumbent with deep marketing spend that competes for Asian-foods category share and shelf positioning relevant to Twin Marquis.

Emerging players

• Pulmuone USA: Pulmuone USA offers Korean-noodle, dumpling, and tofu products in the US, competing for the same shelf space, foodservice accounts, and Asian-American consumer base — partial overlap focused on Korean variants rather than Twin Marquis's Chinese focus.
• Thai Kitchen: Thai Kitchen is a US Asian-meals brand (rice noodles, stir-fry kits, sauces) sold through mainstream grocery — overlapping in rice-noodle category but skewing to Thai recipes rather than Twin Marquis's Chinese heritage.

Direct peers

• JSL Foods (Sun Noodle): Sun Noodle is the most direct US-based fresh-Asian-noodle peer, producing fresh ramen, pho, and somen-style noodles for restaurants and retail — overlapping head-to-head with Twin Marquis's fresh noodle and wrapper offerings across foodservice and supermarket channels.
• Wei-Chuan USA: Wei-Chuan USA manufactures and distributes traditional Asian noodles, dumplings, tofu, and sauces across US retail — directly comparable to Twin Marquis's Asian-noodle and frozen-dumpling lines sold through supermarkets and Asian distributors.
