About Us

Our Story

From a small kitchen in Chennai to thousands of homes across India — this is the story of how tradition, love, and quality came together.

The Beginning

A Family's Legacy, Now Yours

House of Kumaran was born from a simple belief — that the authentic tastes of South India shouldn't be lost to convenience and mass production.

Started in 2021 by the Kumaran family in Chennai, we began by sharing our grandmother's recipes with friends and family. The overwhelming response led us to realize that people everywhere were craving these authentic flavors.

Today, we serve thousands of families across 28 states, but our process remains the same — small batches, traditional methods, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

Our Philosophy

Where tradition meetsuncompromising quality

In an age of mass production, we choose the slower path. Each jar, each packet carries the essence of South Indian homes — where food is not just sustenance, but a celebration of culture.

Zero Preservatives

Every product is made fresh with pure, natural ingredients. No chemicals, no shortcuts.

Made with Love

Traditional recipes passed down through generations, prepared with the same care as home.

Quality First

We source the finest ingredients from trusted farmers across Tamil Nadu.

Authentic Taste

The same flavours that have defined South Indian kitchens for centuries.

"Food is memories. Every spoonful of our podi takes you back to your grandmother's kitchen, to lazy Sunday afternoons, to the taste of home."
