Gokaran Singh Pawar, National Sales Head, MK Agrotech said, “As MK Agrotech’s flagship edible oil brand, Sunpure has the distinction of being India’s first chemical-free, processed and physically refined oil, with government patented technology. For over two decades, we have been garnering much customer love and accolades. This year, we are all set to widen our reach in the food industry.

Sunpure spices are made from pure spices handpicked from farms that adopt sustainable farming practices. They do not have any artificial colors, artificial flavors, or added preservatives, thereby bringing out the natural color, flavor, and aroma of the spices.
Sunpure spices are also processed carefully to retain the bioactive component like capsaicin in chilli, curcumin in turmeric, and essential oil in coriander. They are carefully graded, scientifically processed, and hygienically packed, in accordance with the quality parameters of the Food Safety Standard Authority of India, Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), and Good Hygiene Practice (GHP), ensuring food quality and safety throughout the food supply chain.
