Isaac’s journey from Nazareth, Tamil Nadu, to leading a culinary empire is one of resilience and innovation. Growing up in an agricultural family and inspired by his mother’s cooking, Isaac ventured into the spice business after a decade as a hair dye salesman at Godrej. His first product, a curry masala powder priced at just Rs 2, revolutionized the market and marked the beginning of Aachi’s flavorful journey.
