HEY THERE!
We’re Chris and Kaitlyn Fitzner, the husband-and-wife duo behind SIJANG, based in Richmond, VA. With backgrounds in catering and over a decade in the restaurant world, we know our way around a kitchen like a jalapeño knows how to bring the heat.
As die-hard sauce and condiment lovers, we set out to create a low-calorie chili crunch that packs a punch without the extra baggage—no sugar, no additives, just pure, all-natural goodness.
Inspired by chili oils from around the globe—think Mexican salsa machas, Syrian Aleppo chili oils, Chinese chili crisps, and Calabrian chili oils—we spent months perfecting our own recipe. After many taste tests and feedback sessions, we finally hit the sweet (or should we say spicy?) spot: a low-calorie, all-natural chili crunch we’re proud of.
But we’re just getting started! We’re excited to keep innovating and bring you a full line of mouthwatering condiments and sauces. Can’t wait to share this spicy journey with you all!
WHAT IS SIJANG?
The Korean word for market is Sijang (Korean: 시장).
Just like a market, you'll find many things from around the world. SIJANG has had many forms - in a previous life, it was our catering company that served our fusion Korean x Mexican tacos that we developed, we launched and hosted a unique live art battle series with local artists, and we even created Brazilian Jiu Jitsu patches.
SIJANG is our brand that represents everything we love when it comes to food, design and cool stuff. Just like a market, SIJANG is a little bit of everything and takes inspiration from cultures all around the world with respect.
