Gustavo Tutiven

B2B & Distribution Chain Design

Expert in B2B business and distribution chain design.

Gustavo and Fabrizio came together to build Casa Origen Foods, with the vision of crafting a premium snack brand rooted in honest ingredients and true Ecuadorian origin, one that delivers real value for everyone it touches, from the growers in El Oro and Manabí to the family opening the jar.

From the start, our mission has been clear: bring the true flavor of Ecuador to every table it reaches, without shortcuts. In a snack aisle crowded with mass-produced products, we set out to be different, staying close to our origin, keeping our ingredient list honest, and treating quality as the whole point.

A Region, Not a Recipe

Grown where the Andes meet the Pacific.

El Oro and Manabí sit among the most fertile corners of Ecuador, warm sun, rich volcanic soil, and generations of growers who know exactly when a plantain is ready to become something more.

We don't chase shortcuts. Every jar starts as fruit picked green, sliced by hand, and fried low and slow until it holds its snap. No fillers, no flavor dust, nothing to hide behind.

The Craft

Five honest steps, every one of them done by hand before a chip ever sees a shelf.

01

Harvest

Green plantains picked at peak firmness in El Oro and Manabí.

02

Hand-Slice

Cut fresh, same-day, for an even bite in every chip.

03

Kettle-Fry

Small batches, low and slow, for a true golden crunch.

04

Sea Salt

A light, honest finish, nothing to mask the flavor.

05

Jar It

Sealed at peak crisp and shipped straight to you.

The Original Jar

Salted, and nothing else.

Our flagship green plantain chips, crisp, lightly salted, and built from a three-ingredient list you can actually read out loud.

Great For Dipping

Sturdy enough to scoop, light enough to stack. Pull a handful straight from the jar and dip into guacamole, a garlicky aioli, a bright cilantro-lime crema, or a spicy mango salsa for a little extra crunch and flavor.

You're tasting more than a snack, you're tasting tradition, dedication, and the true flavor of Ecuador.

Why Casa Origen

Made with care, by people who mean it.

Every chip is made by hardworking, passionate people who take pride in what they do, that's not a tagline, it's how the jar gets filled.

Grown, Not Manufactured

Sourced directly from plantain growers in El Oro and Manabí, real fruit, real farmers, real place on the map.

Three Ingredients, Period

No flavor dust, no preservatives, no fine print. If it's not plantain, oil, or salt, it's not in the jar.

Small-Batch Fried

Kettle-fried in limited runs so every batch keeps its crunch and its character.
