Founded in the chaotic heart of Kowloon, Hong Kong, this brand seeks to reintroduce the world to centuries old recipes while bringing natural and organic alternatives to the synthetic products that are prevalent in the modern world.
The name “Blokkie” is taken from my mother tongue, Afrikaans. It means “small block”. In the case of this name, it is polysemous giving reference to the butcher’s block referencing the animal based nature of most of the products; the uncarved block from taoist philosophy and the blocks within the Bitcoin protocol.
It represents the founder’s philosophies on healthy body, mind and economy. The block represents that which is untouched by humanity; which is a fundamental principle of the company: minimal interference, natural organic ingredients instead of products filled with harmful synthetic chemicals and other hormone disrupting ingredients like phthalates.
Our product line is currently expanding, but we aim to introduce a wide range of lifestyle items, including tallow moisturisers, traditional biltong, soaps and hand crafted functional items.
Should you have any desire to collaborate with me, or enquire about any of the products in more depth, please reach out.
