About Us

Pure Indian Foods is run by the Agarwal family: Sandeep & Nalini (aka "the ghee lady")
Meet the Agarwals
Husband and wife team, Sandeep and Nalini Agarwal, brought the family ghee business to the United States in 2008. The business for them is a family legacy that they one day want to leave to their children. Currently, Sandeep runs the day-to-day operations, and Nalini makes all the ghee by hand in the traditional Indian way. Sandeep is also on the Board of Directors for the New Jersey Food Processors Association as well as an active member of AHPA AHPA Ayurvedic Products Committee. He is also a 9/11 survivor.

Family Business Since 1889
In 1889, Lala Khoobram Agarwal, our great-great-grandfather, launched a pure ghee business in northern India. After 5 generations and 130 years in this business, we are still learning! The Agarwal family continues to build upon its proud heritage by focusing on quality and not on quantity.

Made From Non-Homogenized Milk
Homogenization is a process that breaks up fat globules in milk or cream to such a small size that they remain suspended evenly rather than separating out and floating to the surface. We use non-homogenized milk to make our ghee.

Sustainable
Here at Pure Indian Foods, we are passionate about creating products and enabling local economies that are sustainable for both our environment and the people in it. What better way to do this than through advocating for the purest food available?
Sustainability starts from the ground up. Literally. When it comes to our ghee, it starts with nutrient-rich soil, free of fertilizers and pesticides that grow luscious green grass for the cows to graze on. Sun, soil, clean water, and a cow turn organic grass into organic milk, which we then turn into organic ghee (which we like to call sunshine in a jar). The nutrients from the soil are pulled into the grass, which gets eaten by the cow, which transfers to the milk, which is then consumed by you!
Being sustainable means considering every step of production and
Our Approach to Customer Service
"A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work - he is the purpose of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to serve him." - Mahatma Gandhi
