ZOFF Foods, the popular Raipur‑based clean‑label spice brand, has officially entered the booming ready‑to‑cook (RTC) segment with its new "Quick Homestyle Food" lineup, following a strategic partnership with Reliance Retail. The new range introduces two convenient product categories:
- 5‑Minute Gravies (₹150) – Vegetarian options include Paneer and Magic Mix; non‑vegetarian include Chicken and Mutton Gravies.
- 1‑Minute Marinades (₹75) – Featuring flavors like Paneer Tikka, Chicken Chettinad, Fish Fry, and Tandoori Chicken .
ZOFF’s co-founder, Akash Agrawalla, shared, “Ab poora India cook karega — our range celebrates India’s culinary roots while offering urban consumers time-saving solutions without compromising authenticity,” with plans to roll out across more than 400 Reliance Retail stores by July 2025 .
Targeted at busy households that want home-style meals bundled with convenience, these products:
Require no chopping or grinder work
Provide fresh, clean-label ingredients (no preservatives or artificial additives)
Are set to debut online alongside offline expansion, with e-commerce and quick-commerce availability by the end of June .
This move marks a significant evolution for ZOFF, transitioning from whole spices into a full-fledged kitchen solutions brand. According to research firm IMARC Group, India’s RTC market hit approximately $6.65 billion in 2024 and could grow to nearly $11.9 billion by 2033, driven by demand for convenient, healthy, and authentic food solutions .
As ready‑to‑cook and ready‑to‑eat products gain traction in urban India, ZOFF is well-positioned to leverage its clean-label spice heritage alongside strong retail distribution to meet changing consumer preferences.
