The "Quarter-Life" Spark
It started with four friends, a shared "quarter-life crisis," and a simple, hungry question: “Why is it so hard to find a snack that tastes like home, feels premium, but doesn't cost a fortune?” We found ourselves missing the simple joy of our school days—where the Kantin was the heart of the school, and every kupang spent felt like a feast.

The Spirit of the "Lab"
We believed that good food should be an everyday luxury, not a rare treat. So, we traded our worries for a whisk and a wok. Driven by the daring spirit of a Lab, we spent countless nights experimenting with bold local spices and the crunchiest textures. We weren't just making chips; we were engineering memories. Thus, Kantin Lab was born!

Beyond the Potato: A Local Evolution
Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve grown from four dreamers into a proud local brand. Our “experiments” have expanded beyond our signature Potato Chips to the Artisan Tempeh Series—a celebration of Malaysia’s traditional superfood with modern twists like Himalayan Salt, Chili Cheese, and Cheese Burger.

From the fiery kick of Spicy Mala to our historic collab with Angel Brand, we’re on a mission to put Malaysian snacks on the global map.
