Our Story
MC Company was founded by Mr. Sargunam in Madurai with a simple yet powerful vision — to create a quality asafoetida product that people could trust. Starting with a production capacity of 20–30kg, MC Company has grown to produce nearly half a ton of asafoetida per day, supplying customers across more than 22 districts in Tamil Nadu.
Our sourcing
MC Company imports raw asafoetida resin directly from the finest sources in Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, and Iran — regions known for producing the highest quality asafoetida in the world. This careful sourcing ensures that every MC product carries the authentic aroma and flavour that South Indian cooking demands.
A Vision Built Around Quality
For Mr. Sargunam, MC Company was not simply about manufacturing and selling a product. It was about creating a product with consistent quality that people could confidently bring into their kitchens.
The idea was simple:
A good product should be made with care, maintain consistent quality, and earn the trust of the people who use it. This principle continues to be at the heart of MC Company's journey.
