H Mart is recognised as one of the fastest growing retailers by the National Retail and Supermarket News and has listed H Mart as one of the Top 50 Small Chains and Independents in the United States & Canada.

MicroSalt® provides a much-needed option that allows food manufacturers and consumers to cut the sodium content of their food without impacting the flavor. With 31% of adults worldwide suffering from high blood pressure and other cardiovascular diseases – pressure is mounting around the globe to lower the sodium content in prepared and packaged foods as well as in the home.

“There are tens of millions of health-conscious Americans, including those suffering from high blood pressure and other cardiovascular diseases who would certainly enjoy the full saltiness of SaltMe! potato chips with approximately half the sodium found in traditional potato chips,” said MicroSalt’s CEO Rick Guiney.

About MicroSalt, Ltd

MicroSalt, is the developer and manufacturer of a proprietary low-sodium salt called MicroSalt®. We are passionate about improving peoples lives with better-for-you seasonings and snacks by taking the lead in the industry by providing the best low-sodium salt solution, based on the mechanical transformation of the salt particle itself. This solution is the only one that delivers real salt flavour because it is salt. Our new patented technology produces salt crystals that are approximately one hundred times smaller than typical table salt, delivering a powerful saltiness as the micro-grains dissolve in the mouth, with approximately 50% less sodium consumption. Additionally, the ultra-small particle size enhances product adhesion, which reduces waste and provides improved flavor consistency. MicroSalt® and SaltMe® are registered trademarks of MicroSalt Inc.
