About Us

Welcome to Zaycca, where culinary passion meets utmost quality.

At Zaycca, we believe in the transformative power of gourmet cooking. To us, every dish is a canvas, and every ingredient, a brushstroke. We cater to the home chef who revels in the joy of cooking, appreciating the nuances that top-tier ingredients bring to the table.

Our Story:

In this era of wellness, we are cautious about ingredients on the packaged foods we buy, careful of the cooking oils we allow in our kitchens, and choose our vegetables and meats carefully from the best sources. However, for something as commonly available as spices, our awareness on quality is limited, and more often than not, the quality made available to us is not the best. 

Welcome to Zaycca! I’m Abhijit, the founder of this vibrant venture. Our journey began in January 2024, but the seeds for Zaycca were planted much earlier, during a transformative period back in March 2020. At the time, I was living by myself in Gurgaon. My culinary life was mostly managed by a dedicated cook, with frequent forays into the world of food delivery apps. Rarely did I venture into cooking myself. That said, my fondness of good food and travel always had me exploring new cuisines and try to find the stories connecting any culture and it's cuisine.

As the news of an impending lockdown started floating around, the thought of missing out on my favorite biryanis and curries was daunting. However, this prompted me to start exploring cooking myself, beginning with stocking up on a variety of spices, lentils, different types of rice, and even baking supplies just days before the lockdown was implemented.

The lockdown proved challenging, yet it profoundly changed my relationship with cooking. I embraced the process, learning from culinary experts like Ranveer, Kunal, Amit Dassana, Swasthi, Benazeer, and many more whose virtual guidance helped me refine my skills and experiment with flavors. This newfound passion led me to start blending my own spices, uncovering a stark difference in freshness and quality compared to store-bought options. The difference in quality and freshness was eye-opening. This experience sparked an idea: what if every home cook had access to the finest spices to transform their meals and elevate their cooking skills?

Before founding Zaycca, I spent years in the corporate sector working with companies that prioritized educating and upgrading their consumers. This instilled in me the values of upskilling, transparency, and excellence—principles that now form the foundation of Zaycca.

Shortly after, my longtime friend and engineering batchmate, Anubhav, joined me as Co-Founder. With over 20 years of friendship and shared aspirations, Anubhav brings unmatched expertise and a fresh perspective to Zaycca. His decade-long experience in startups like Milkbasket, Citymall, and Dealshare has been instrumental in building businesses from seed stage to scaling across multiple cities. With his expertise in sourcing, merchandising, and fulfillment operations, Anubhav shares my vision of empowering home cooks with premium culinary ingredients.

At Zaycca, we are driven by a passion for excellence, sourcing only the highest-quality spices and dry fruits from reliable suppliers.
