Mya Ayer was founded in 1986 by two aspiring people known as Mr.Tin Ohme and Mr.Soe Myint who are dear uncle and nephew. They started by a small factory which manufactured Copra Coconut Oil (CNO). In those good-old days and still, coconut oil is extremely popular product for hair in Myanmar. After a few years of working together, Mr.Tin Ohme sold off all his shares unconditionally to Mr. Soe Myint, thus left 'Mya Ayer' to the sole care of Mr.Soe Myint, who is still our honored Chairman. Mya Ayer Group has gone on to grow successful businesses in sectors ranging from Manufacturing, Construction and Agriculture.

It has been a decade since I took the responsibility of the Managing Director at Mya Ayer Group. When I look back the past years, it delights me to know that we have spent the time well by obtaining tremendous achievements and milestones not only as a group but also as individuals in a team of high achievers. Since the time I have started working as Managing Director of Mya Ayer Manufacturing, I have managed to upgrade it from a small family owned business with under 15 workers, having only one product to sell to a group of companies which currently employs over 250 employees in manufacturing and construction sectors. Our manufacturing company is now producing 25 SKUs, including both organic and conventional consumer products.
We introduced different value settings and contribute an inclusive business culture to coconut industry. Our factories use 50% renewable energy and are ISO22000 certified. We also certified over 2,500 coconut farmers and their lands as “USDA, EU and JAS certified organic” along with Control Union. Moreover, we manage to extend another solor-powered factory in Man-Aung Island in Rakhine State, with the support of DaNa Facility under DFID, UK for the development of the island and inclusive business benefits to its inhabitants. On top of that, our products have been exporting to Japan, Korea and China with our own brands.
We believe in gender equality and women empowerment. We employs more than 50% of women in our workplaces with equal pays. As a Managing Director, I, myself is devoted to the prosperous future of our group and wish to be the anchor, a tower of strength, right-hand man and leader to the group whom our colleagues look up to in time of crisis.
As a group, we value every effort to build the organization sustainability, to get positive outcomes in every aspect of development in community and to create better impacts for the future of our country.
