- We offer custom blends to suit the various kinds of masala products available across India. We can offer Goan style, North Indian, coastal cuisine, Chettinad, South Indian style masala products, Chinese, Italian and Barbeque mixes suitable for home or HORECA use.
- Thillais was launched in the year 2010 as a consumer brand to showcase our world-class manufacturing and quality capabilities from our export business.
- The name Thillais was chosen in memory of the family matriarch Thillai Sivakami. She was a cook par excellence who cooked for her large family of thirteen children and subsequently her larger brood comprising her grandchildren as well. She could churn out simple yet tasty dishes in a jiffy. Thillais is hence a befitting name for our masala brand.
- Thillais was launched keeping in mind today’s young homemakers who do not have time to cook and people new to cooking.
- Thillais has several first-to-market products that were developed keeping in mind the needs of young home cooks. We believe cooking should be fun and easy.
- Our products are more than just a masala blend and include onions, ginger and garlic so you don’t need to waste time peeling and dicing onions, ginger and garlic.
- We specialize in regional non-vegetarian dishes that can usually be seen on restaurant menus.
- With Thillais you can make these regional specialties in the comfort of your kitchen. Our single serve easy range mixes ensure that cooking is always fun and easy.
- The food service industry is an important sector and its requirements are vastly different from a home kitchen and hence Masala Chef a brand of spice and masala blends was launched in 2021 with blends crafted to meet the specific requirements of commercial kitchens.
- Our products are developed keeping the costs, quality and consistency needed for a successful restaurant.
- Our range includes pure spice powders, masala for North Indian cuisine, South Indian cuisine, Chinese cuisine, grills and Barbeque mixes.
- These products are offered directly to restaurants from the company to help get constant feedback from chefs and to keep distribution costs low which helps restaurants in staying competitive.
