About Us

true health- making mindful nutrition a habit

Today the processed food industry has flooded the market with easily accessible convenience foods, loaded with unbelievable amounts of salt, sugar and fat, accompanied by false claims and harmful additives. Pristine Organics aims to fight this epidemic with products that are truly healthy, and processes that are transparent, with quality at the core.

Our Story

If you have the courage to begin , you have the courage to succeed- David Viscott

Pristine was born with the dream of a young couple to do something that would make a change to the health of this great nation. 

Raghu and Deepa met as colleagues in a food analytical laboratory in 1989. Their experience as food analysts naturally catapulted their orientation to food quality and food safety . Their initial years of work experience and their deep interest in understanding the role of nutrition in health, gained by abundant reading and related trainings, culminated in a deep desire to develop a micronutrient delivery system . 


They ventured into researching and developing food formulations and fortificants that would be holistic, nutritious, safe, healthy, and  above all address the “hidden hunger” which is a much underrated malaise in our country .

Over the years, Pristine's growth has paralleled the expansion of these sectors. Its products have been appreciated by leading organizations for their unique blends and quality control across the value chain. Today, Pristine also manufactures its own range of organic products.

Now, 25 years later, Pristine has become a pioneer in organic foods, nutraceuticals, and critical medical diets for rare genetic disorders. Notably, it is recognized by the Food Safety & Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), has a inbuilt laboratory that is NABL certified for rigourous adherement to quality, and one of only five companies worldwide to address Inborn Error Metabolism (IEM) issues.

Going ahead, Pristine strives to uphold the same ideologies it was born out of, and grow to add true health to our society.
