Every great business starts with a simple idea. Our business dates back to the pre-Independence era of the 1920s, in the quaint streets of Triplicane. What began as a small family endeavour grew, over five decades, into a name trusted across South Indian kitchens for appalams, vathals, vadaam, podis and snacks made the traditional way.

We aspire to spread the authentic taste of India beyond our borders. If you are looking to experience the best of Indian goodies, we are just a mail away.

Our retail outlets started in 2007 under the Ambika Retail Pvt. Ltd wing; a few years later in 2012, retailing of podis started by Ambika India. We believe that the only way to grow is together.

In today’s day and age, where speed and constant innovation are essential for survival, K V Vyas, the third-generation entrepreneur, has taken charge of the managerial and developmental growth of the business.
R&D has been the most crucial factor in converting the business from a small scale to a large scale operation. He is the mind behind mechanising and modernising food processing for Ambika’s food business.
In order to serve great food, you must first have great recipes and people who know how to follow them — the recipe manual is the cornerstone of every food business and the foundation of consistent quality.
