Our Story

Original Acai is a result of years of frustration Marcelo Mafra faced trying to find pure Acai at an affordable price in the United States.

​

Marcelo Mafra moved to the United States primarily to participate and spread the sport of Brazillian Jiujitsu. And while he carried much of his home in his heart, one thing he always struggled with was finding good Acai in the U.S. 

​

In 2019, having won several BJJ championships and opening two major BJJ dojos in souther California, Mafra decided to bring one his home country's most precious produce - Acai,

​

Since then, Original Acai has been on a mission to work directly with native organic farmers in Brazil to bring 100% pure, non-GMO Acai to the U.S. in general and SOCAL region in specific.

​

We hope to bring the same happiness and health-benifits that we have acquired through Acai to you.
