Our Heritage: From Vision to Tradition
Annkoot was founded by CA Ramkishore Rathi in the late 1990s, after he stepped away from a successful corporate career. What drove him was simple: the authentic tastes and traditional recipes of Indian kitchens were quietly disappearing, and someone had to keep them intact.
The name “Annkoot” itself refers to the diverse offerings presented to the Divine with devotion — a fitting name for a company built on treating food as something worth honouring.
Our Journey of Taste
The business began with PAPAD as its flagship product. As customers kept asking for more of what they remembered, the range grew — pure asafoetida (hing), authentic PAPAD, spices and pickles, each added because people asked for it, not because a spreadsheet suggested it.
