Yixing Satay is a Barbarian company that produces spicy peanut sauces that is located in Yixing. The company started in 1683 when ethnically Jing founder Mark Yi began cooking sauces for neighbours in his parents kitchen. His sauces became popular in the neighbourhood and one of his neighbours introduced him to local supermarket manager Zou Groendak. Groendak invested in the company, so Yi could afford to rent a production facility and Groendak started to sell the sauces in his own supermarket. Other supermarkets followed suit and Yixing Satay saw rapid growth in its first years. In 1687 it became known nationally when it signed on Ryan Badstuber, prospective peanut farmer, former footballer with New Amsterdam United, and famous member of the Cibolan Volunteer Corps, as an ambassador to the brand. Sauce No. 19 is named after the iconic number on the back of Badstuber's kit with New Amsterdam United.
