LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

 

Subject was incorporated on 3rd May, 1990 at Kochi in Kerala having Company Registration Number 5685.

 

The company’s manufacturing history goes back to 1970 when it was formed as a division of Bombay Oil Industries Limited. This was the first large oleoresin plants set up in India, which led to the eventual dominance of the Indian oleoresin industry in the world market.

 

The genesis of the decision to enter this business, can be tracked back to the history of the Mariwala family. The family had been in the spice business for over a century. Young Kanji Moorarji, upon his migration from his native district of Kutch, in Gujarat, set up a small trading business in Mumbai to trade in pepper in the year 1965.

 

Kanji Moorarji, the firm established in 1911 grew to be one of the largest exporters of pepper from India. Vallabhdas Kanji Limited was incorporated in the year 1935 to do more than just pepper. The firm then started trading in turmeric, ginger and later chillies.

 

In the year 1947, with India’s independence, Kanji Moorarji decided to diversify into the speciality fats business. In 1970, it was decided to venture into oleoresins from spices utilising the knowledge the family had acquired over the years. Subsequent generations of the family with a blend of expert professionals and technicians had now developed Kancor into a modern forward looking company at the forefront of India’s spice oleoresins and essential oils manufacturing competency.

 

The company had the benefit of an unbroken tradition in the spice business over 125 years. In 1970 the company pioneered India’s spice extraction industry by establishing the country’s first oleoresin manufacturing operation.

 

The company’s history and experience, supported by a strategic vision and professional management enables the company to offer product quality and customer service which meet some of the most demanding standards of acceptability in the world food industry.
