Our History

National Egg Roll Day was established in 2019 to honor the company’s founding in June of 1986. Van and Kim Nguyen, two deserving Vietnamese immigrants, made their ultimate American Dream come to life with their passion for creating authentic egg rolls. Like many immigrant families before them, Van and Kim Nguyen came from Vietnam. Together, they established a home and family business in Dallas, Texas. They diligently hired hard-working employees, filling out paperwork in a language that was not their own. The Nguyens created a business model based solely on their greatest strength: making authentic egg rolls for those they love. Using only fresh, whole ingredients and crafting the egg rolls in artisan batches, Van’s Kitchen sets itself apart by maintaining its decades-long commitment to making every bite the best one.

Over the years, National Egg Roll Day has garnered attention from retailers nationwide by bringing light to Asian culture and promoting diversity. The egg roll celebrates the hard work of our founders and brings different cultures together through its versatility and universal appeal!

Van’s Kitchen founded National Egg Roll Day to commemorate the company’s founding in June of 1986, and to bring people together by sharing delicious egg rolls. National Egg Roll Day is a time to celebrate, make memories, and share a meal with those you love. Join the fun by learning about our history at Van’s Kitchen and how to celebrate!
