Craving restaurant-quality meats, imported cheeses, or premium seafood but without the restaurant price tag? Introducing Ziko Kitchen offers some of the best gourmet products and imported foods in China, handpicked by experts and offered at flash-sale prices, all through exclusive WeChat community groups.
From beautifully marbled wagyu steaks to sushi-grade tuna to some of the best French cheeses and imported cold cuts, Ziko Kitchen is the foodie’s go-to for high-end ingredients.
But what makes Ziko Kitchen so special? It all starts with Zikoland — a trusted community-based e-commerce platform founded by food lovers, for food lovers.
About Zikoland
Zikoland isn’t some faceless e-commerce platform in China. (Though, you might see one of its founders donning a mask in their videos.) And FYI — it is not an online grocer.
It is the brainchild of two French guys (Ziko, an actual chef, and Yohan) who, back in 2017, decided to open up the imported food scene to the masses. Their pitch was simple: cut out the middlemen, work directly with top importers, and sell the good stuff at prices that don’t make you weep.
Their operating motto is essentially to make gourmet products accessible without compromising on quality. What began as a passion project quickly grew into a thriving community-first shopping experience.
Ziko Kitchen is a huge part of Zikoland, but they also have Ziko Cellar for fine wines and spirits, Ziko Farm for fresh produce and organic goods, and Ziko Pet Corner for human-grade premium pet foods and treats. (Ziko himself is a dog owner.)
Quality Assurance
Every product sold on Ziko Kitchen goes through a rigorous selection process. Ziko and his team sample multiple suppliers, cook and taste-test each item, and only approve the best. If it doesn’t meet their standards, it doesn’t make the cut.
I visited Ziko’s office — which doubles as a test kitchen and photo studio — to take part in the process. We compared three different salmon samples side by side. Two were excellent, one could have been sushi-grade, and well, one just didn’t make the cut.
That’s the level of scrutiny every single product goes through before reaching Ziko Kitchen’s flash sales. If Ziko, father of two, won’t serve it to his kids, he won’t add it to the docket.
