Coupled with a social responsibility and a heartfelt desire to bring tasty and healthy rice to traditional Kerala homes, the visionary Shri. K.K.R Karnan established K.K.R Mills in 1976, which has since transformed into the Nirapara Brand, a name synonymous with quality food for millions of consumers around the world.

After establishing itself as a premium rice manufacturer, the company has diversified its business; employing state-of-the-art technology introduced a wide range of food products into the market under the "Nirapara" brand. The brand offers numerous products other than rice; from whole spices to masala powders, vegetarian and non-vegetarian pickles which are nutritionally rich and full of Nature's goodness.
