About Purezento For Me
Who we are
The brand purezento for me was founded in 2019 by Maysa Theis – out of a deep personal journey and a long-standing connection to Japan.
During a time of inner turmoil and change, Maysa travelled alone to Japan to find peace and realign with herself. It was there that the decision matured: to create something of her own – a meaningful, fulfilling project that combines pleasure, mindfulness and freedom. From that inner clarity, purezento for me was born – product by product, crafted with love, dedication and a clear set of values.
Maysa is the founder, creative visionary and CEO. She develops every product herself, shapes the brand's concept and oversees content, the online shop and the creative direction.
Mayo Ohnsorge, also a mother of two, has accompanied purezento for me from the beginning. Originally brought on to strengthen the connection to the Japanese community, she has since become a vital force in the day-to-day business, supporting organisation, communication and team leadership.
What unites them is the shared wish for a workplace marked by openness, mutual support and real equality – especially for women balancing family and career.
The Name
The name purezento for me comes from the English word “present” – a word that means both gift and the now. In Japanese, it was adopted as purezento and became part of everyday language.
So our name stands for two things we often neglect: a gift for me, and time for me – a quiet reminder that looking after yourself is not a luxury.
Our Story
purezento for me is a German-Japanese brand, inspired by the beauty and depth of both cultures. Our logo shows the silhouette of Germany with Japan's red sun – the connection and the shared values between the two countries.
But purezento for me goes beyond origins. We stand for diversity, humanity and lived openness. That is why we take a clear stance against exclusion and nationalism, and support organisations that work for awareness, equality and respectful coexistence.
Purezento in Japan
We are currently preparing to open our own location in Japan and to found purezento as a Japanese company. Our Japanese shop is open in the meantime – we will announce the next steps here.
How we work
Everything is made by hand, in small batches, and only in the quantities we actually need. Handmade in Germany, in our own kitchen – not on a production line.
- Colour from fruit, vegetables and spices. No artificial colours in any of our products.
- No artificial flavours, no flavour enhancers, no preservatives and no genetically modified ingredients.
- Our granolas are sweetened with maple syrup or with honey from our own bees – not with plain white sugar.
- Small suppliers where we can. Family-run farms that work the way we do.
Every ingredient is chosen deliberately. The exact ingredients and allergens are listed on each product page.
Our Products
Our products are small, meaningful gifts – for yourself, or for someone you love. A gentle pause from daily life.
Each one tells a story: of craftsmanship, of origin, and of the courage to walk your own path.
