Happy Hippo seeks to be the friendly face for Kratom.

Kratom is a sacred plant with so many amazing benefits. 

While it doesn’t work equally as well for everyone - Kratom can truly be life-changing for many. 

Most of us know this.

Sadly, many people who could benefit the most from this natural leaf will never get a chance to discover Kratom.

Or worse, they have a bad first experience with an overly powerful unbalanced extract or an inferior cheap product and never truly have the real "Kratom experience". 

Happy Hippo seeks to be that critical ‘first experience’ that is so vital to new users who are seeking alternatives.  

For the veteran and daily consumer, Happy Hippo exists so you never have to worry about consistency in your Leaf or experience. 

As a Kratom consumer of nearly two decades, long before Happy Hippo ever existed, I remember the anxiety and disappointment of getting a failed strain or weak batch that needed to go into the trash and being left with no support. It made me scared to order from new sources or try new strains.

Whether you are new or super veteran, you NEVER have to worry about getting stuck with a strain or batch that you don’t like.

That is the last thing you need to worry about, every batch, strain, order and every customer is backed by our "Happiness Guarantee".

Just let us know and we will replace it until you have what you need.

Happy Hippo is a consumer-founded and consumer-focused small family business that seeks to deliver the elite Leaf, service and education that Kratom deserves.

We’ve been with Happy Hippo from the beginning, with just a few employees. It warms my heart to see the company grow. Even though they can now sell wholesale products to other vendors, they have never lost that small company feel.

It seems like I’ve been a Happy Hippo customer forever. The quality of the product and the friendly, personal customer service has kept me a loyal customer all this time. Even has the company has grown (which is so great to see), the consistency of the company’s values has me keep coming back.

I am 61 years old. I work 12 hour shifts. If it weren’t for my morning kratom, I would not be able to do this. I work in a plant and am on my feet the whole day except for breaks. Kratom opens my mind, gives me energy and lifts my mood. I use it like I use any supplement. I follow directions for my needs. I only take what is necessary and no more. If legislation took this away, I would not be able to function as I do. Keep up the good work Happy Hippo! I don’t know what I would do without you and I don’t want to find out!

I have been a kratom consumer many years, and Happy Hippo is one of the steadfast outfits where there is no guesswork concerning quality of product. You can chase prices, but you will also be disappointed in many other companies.

One thing I have learned from HH is to watch for sales! Eventually one of your favorites will have its turn. Plus it’s good to have a few to round out your tolerance. Also, you all keep up with the kratom news, pending legislation, educating the kratom community, the important work the American Kratom Association is doing, staying on the GMP list, and having up to date inspection surveys of your products.

The only hiccup I ever saw was when a legislator said the Kratom vendors are targeting children, and held up a bright pink foil pack with a smiling cartoon hippo, and I went “oh no…” The legislator didn’t know that you all are a quality outfit, and that you can’t judge a book by its cover. I don’t expect you to rebrand, but it is an obstacle to those who don’t know better.

Keep up the good work, service, quality and sales!

As a lawyer it has made a tremendous difference in my practice and life. I started using it because I learned it helped with social anxiety. Now after 10 years it is daily. I hear lots of horror stories but mine have been very positive especially the pain of aging.
