Our story

A collectors’ shop that became an export house

MJJ & Co. began behind a small storefront in Bangkok — part café, part exotic pet shop, entirely run by people who kept isopods and ants long before it was a business. Collectors came for rare Cubaris, stayed to argue about substrate mixes, and kept asking the same question: can you ship to Europe?

So we learned to do it properly. Export permits, health checks, insulated packing, route-planned freight — the unglamorous parts of the trade that decide whether an animal arrives thriving or doesn’t. Today we export our own captive-bred stock to hobbyists and retailers across the EU and UK, and we still photograph every species ourselves, from our own colonies.

The rule hasn’t changed since the shop days: sell the animal you would want to receive, with the data a serious keeper actually needs.

The process

How we ship

  1. Inquiry & quote

    Tell us the species and quantities you're after. We confirm availability from our breeding groups and quote with freight to your country included.

  2. Health check & paperwork

    Every animal is inspected before packing. We prepare the health documentation and Thai export permits — you receive copies before the box ships.

  3. Insulated packing

    Species-appropriate containers, substrate from their own enclosure, and insulated boxes with heat or cool packs matched to the forecast on the route.

  4. Express freight, live arrival

    Boxes fly express with tracking shared the moment they leave Bangkok. Live arrival is guaranteed to the EU and UK — if something goes wrong, we make it right.
