Since 1987, Shankar Foods has played a pioneering role in the UK’s ethnic food landscape. What began as Shankar Super Store in South Harrow — the country’s first Asian ethnic retail shop — has evolved into a leading distributor of authentic World Foods across the UK.

We introduced numerous South Indian and Sri Lankan brands to British shelves and continue that legacy today as the exclusive UK distributor of Kings brand products and ITC’s premium portfolio, including Aashirvaad, Sunfeast, Kitchens of India, Yippee, B Natural, and Yoga Bar.

Through our distribution arm, we now supply a nationwide network of over 1000 retailers, from independent shops to major supermarket chains such as Tesco, Asda, and Morrisons. Our commitment to quality, authenticity, and customer satisfaction lies at the heart of everything we do.
