About Us
Amma stands as a symbol of trust, authenticity, and purity—bringing the taste of home to kitchens across Europe.
About our heritage
Amma was born from a deep love for authentic flavors and a mission to bring the purest ingredients to every home. Our journey began in the early 2000s when our founder migrated from Sri Lanka to Germany. At that time, finding high-quality Tamil spices and traditional South Indian and Sri Lankan products in Europe at an affordable price was nearly impossible. This sparked a vision—to bring our unique touch of flavor to Europe. And so, our mission became clear!
At Amma, We stand by Four Important Pillars
Heritage
Honoring our roots and preserving the traditional flavors of South Indian and Sri Lankan cuisine, sharing them with the world just as they have been for centuries.
Authentic Flavours
Delivering the purest ingredients to recreate the taste of home, no matter where you are.
Innovation
Expanding beyond groceries into home appliances, making traditional cooking more convenient for modern kitchens.
Sustainability
Supporting farmers and their families, ensuring fair trade, and creating opportunities in rural villages to build a better future.
Our Goal to bridge this gap
With a goal to bridge this gap, our family business started by importing fresh vegetables from across the world—Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan, the Dominican Republic, Kenya, Uganda, Egypt, and beyond. As demand grew, we expanded into importing rice and canned goods from Asia, which became a huge success. From there, we ventured into frozen seafood, bringing premium fish like King Fish, Crab, Squid, and Shrimps to our customers.
But to truly honor our culinary heritage, we knew that authentic and natural spices were the key. That’s why we built direct relationships with farmers, ensuring a WIN-WIN partnership for all stakeholders. Our founders come from a farming background themselves, so they deeply understand the challenges and dedication of farmers. By controlling the value chain from its roots, we guarantee the highest quality for every Amma product.
Today, Amma stands as a symbol of trust, authenticity, and purity—bringing the taste of home to kitchens across Europe.
Following Tradition...
Great South Asian cuisine takes time, patience, and the right ingredients. At Amma, we believe the magic of cooking begins with authenticity. Inspired by our founders’ traditions and the love of their mothers—whom we honor with our brand name, "Amma" (which means "Mother" in Tamil)—we are committed to providing you with pure, authentic ingredients so you can create magic in your own kitchen.
Tradition...
Every Amma product is carefully selected and sourced directly from farmers in India, Sri Lanka, Canada, Australia, Myanmar, Ethiopia, Thailand, and beyond. By working closely with them, we ensure that each spice, pulse, and grain is cultivated in the most ideal conditions, harvested at peak quality, and delivered in its purest form—without shortcuts.
