In the world of konjac foods, not all konjac root is created equal.

Just as fine wine comes from specific vineyards in Bordeaux, the highest-quality konjac comes from a very specific place: Anzhou (formerly Anxian), Sichuan Province, China.

For over 40 years, international buyers — from Japan to Taiwan — have prized Anxian Konjac for its superior texture, exceptional viscosity, and overall purity. As early as the 1980s, traders recognized that Anzhou’s unique soil and climate produced konjac tubers far superior to those grown elsewhere.

Today, Eastern Morning (Sichuan Moli) brings this premium konjac directly from our own fields to your brand lines.
But why does origin matter so much for your arroz konjac, noodles, y pasta productos?

The “Anzhou Standard”: More Than Just a Name

Anzhou is not just a location — it is officially recognized as one of China’s eight designated Konjac Planting Bases, and its konjac products carry the prestigious Geographical Indication (GI) designation.

This status is granted only to products whose quality and characteristics are inseparably linked to their place of origin.

Historical texts from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties described Anzhou konjac as having detoxifying and digestion-aiding properties.
Modern science now confirms what ancient farmers observed: Anzhou konjac delivers superior health benefits and functional performance.

For manufacturers and distributors, however, the real value lies in physical and functional consistency.

The Science: Why Our Konjac Performs Better

When producing konjac rice, instant noodles, or pasta, the functional performance of glucomanano — the soluble fiber extracted from konjac — is critical.

Compared with konjac sourced from other regions, Anxian Konjac consistently outperforms on key quality indicators:

Higher Glucomannan Content

Our raw konjac roots contain ~5% higher glucomannan levels than comparable regional sources, resulting in:

• Stronger gelling capacity
• Improved structure and texture

Superior Viscosity

Viscosity is the primary quality marker for konjac flour.
Flour derived from Anzhou tubers produces exceptionally high-viscosity gels, delivering:

• Better elasticity
• Superior mouthfeel
• Stable performance during processing

Purity & Appearance

Our proprietary extraction process achieves a 55–60% extraction rate, producing flour that is:

• Bright white and crystalline
• Highly transparent in solution
• Free from off-colors and impurities

This ensures your final products look clean, premium, and consistent — never dull or grey.

Vertical Integration: We Grow What We Sell

One of the biggest risks in global B2B food supply chains is batch inconsistency.
Many suppliers rely on raw materials sourced from numerous small farmers, leading to:

• Variability between batches
• Unstable supply
• Unpredictable processing performance

Eastern Morning takes a different approach.

We are native to Anzhou. We don’t just process konjac — we cultivate it ourselves.

By controlling every stage of the konjac lifecycle, we ensure quality, traceability, and consistency from farm to factory:

Seed Selection

Only authentic Anxian flower konjac varieties are planted, ensuring premium raw material quality from the very beginning.

Precision Cultivation

We carefully manage:

• Soil health
• Seasonal growth cycles
• Harvest timing

This guarantees tubers reach optimal maturity before processing.

Onsite Processing

Our production facilities are located directly in Anzhou, minimizing the time between harvest and processing — preserving:

• Freshness
• Nutrients
• Raw material integrity

What This Means for Your Business
