The facts, checkable

Company: Yaow Seamoss, Houston, TX. Founded 2019 by J. Bellot; grew out of Houston farmers markets.
What we make: sea moss gel (16/32 oz, five flavors), real-fruit bottled refreshers, moss pops, raw sea moss, subscriptions, and wholesale cases.
Sourcing: organic Purple African Seamoss, hand harvested off the corals of East Africa. Never pool-grown, never bleached. Lab-tested at multiple stages.
Position: everything is made fresh to order in Houston and shipped cold Monday through Wednesday. It is food, not medicine, and our marketing says so.

Story angles that are actually true

The Houston kitchen competing with Shark Tank money: our Sea Moss Price Index is the only published per-ounce price comparison in the category. The bilingual gap: we publish in Spanish for a market the national brands ignore. The honesty experiment: we tell customers sea moss is food, not medicine, and sales went up, not down.
