The brand JK speaks of a long journey of success that paved its path way back in 1957. The dream was to serve the market with pure and hygienic packed spices and food products.

JK Spices’ mission and vision is to spread their products’ quality and its superiority around the globe, while adding various new products in their hygienic commercial packaging, thereby enhancing consumer health as well as meeting consumer expectations and providing premium products under brand JK.

The company’s motto “Shudh Khao Swasth Raho” was also coined by Late. Shri. Dhannalal Ji Jain, which the current promoters swear by. These 7 Jain brothers continue to live up-to the Jain culture of only vegetarian food products, and are focussed on maintaining quality and consistency in every product packed under brand JK.
