Sanjeeta KK, an MBA graduate and former corporate professional, founded OGMO Foods in 2018 to bridge the gap between ancient nutrition and modern convenience.
A medical emergency forced her to leave her high-paced corporate career, leading her to spend a decade focusing on her health and rediscovering the power of natural, plant-based foods. Combining her background in health and nutrition with her expertise as a professional food stylist and blogger, she now leads OGMO as a mission-driven entrepreneur dedicated to empowering local farmers and reviving forgotten minor millets for today’s table.
Founded in Chennai in 2018 by Sanjeeta KK, OGMO Foods is a health-focused brand dedicated to reintroducing forgotten ancient grains into modern daily diets. The brand’s name, standing for “Organic Movement,” reflects a deep commitment to creating a sustainable, plant-based food system that benefits both the consumer and the local farmers who source these drought-resistant grains. By combining traditional nutritional wisdom with contemporary convenience, OGMO offers a versatile range of products—from baby cereals to overnight oats—designed to fuel busy lifestyles without compromising on authentic wellness.
The true uniqueness of OGMO lies in its meticulous “clean label” philosophy and specialized processing of unpolished minor millets. Unlike standard commercial offerings, OGMO follows a traditional preparation method where every grain is soaked for eight hours to neutralize phytic acid and then solar-dried to preserve its natural nutritional integrity. This rigorous attention to detail ensures that all products are free from artificial preservatives, flavors, and refined sugars, providing a bioavailable and pure nutritional experience that is rare in today’s processed food market.
