THE ANJALI STORY
Anjali Oils and Foods was born out of the dream of visionary entrepreneur, Mr. He was well aware of the tremendous importance of sesame, or gingelly oil in the culture of South India, and how it is used as a cooking medium, for medicinal purposes in Ayurveda, and for cosmetic use. Realizing the potential importance of this nutritionally rich oil in an increasingly health-conscious society, he founded Nataraj Oil Mills Private Limited in 1994, to provide the best quality gingelly oil to small and large consumers. Natarajan has emerged as a pioneer in the oil industry, with a strong background of about thirty years in the oil industry. His venture into the packaged oil business paid rich dividends and ‘Anjali’ carved a niche for itself with its strong brand image. The success of ‘Anjali’ in the area of edible oils led to the growth of the brand in other related food segments, such as Pickles, Sauces, Ketchups and Jams under the banner of ‘Anjali Foods’. ‘Anjali’ had already become a household name, recognized for its purity and taste, and this was reinforced by wholesome pickles and preserves from the ‘Anjali’ brand that are an integral part of every meal. ‘Anjali Foods’ has led to a quantum leap in the Anjali story, by capturing peoples hearts and becoming a popular and sought after brand. Anjali Oils and Foods’ products are produced in a fully automated manufacturing plant along the Madurai-Chennai Highway in Tamil Nadu, India that is spread across an area of 5 acres.
