Gramik® Careers & Recruitment

Corporate Overview & History

Gramik® is the flagship brand of Gramik Foods Private Limited, an Indian fast‑moving consumer goods (FMCG) company that specializes in premium organic and natural food products. The company was incorporated in 2012 by a group of food‑technology entrepreneurs who identified a gap in the Indian market for certified organic spices, flours, and ready‑to‑cook mixes. Starting with a modest processing unit in Gurgaon, Gramik® quickly expanded its product portfolio and distribution network, achieving pan‑India presence by 2017. The brand’s core mission is “to bring wholesome, chemical‑free nutrition to every Indian kitchen while supporting sustainable farming practices.”

Gramik® now operates three state‑of‑the‑art manufacturing facilities (New Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore) and maintains a supply‑chain partnership with over 1,200 small‑holder farmers across the country. The company exports to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the United Kingdom, positioning itself as a global player in the organic food segment.
