Our Story

A Dream Seasoned with Courage & Tradition

In the lush coastal villages of Karnataka, a small group of women gathered around stone grinders, sharing recipes passed down through generations. What began as a humble kitchen enterprise in 2004 has blossomed into a movement — a living testament to the power of rural women and the magic of authentic Indian spices.

Coastal was built to create opportunities for women while preserving the traditional flavours of coastal Karnataka.

— Founder, Coastal Masala

Today, Coastal Flavours stands as one of India's finest artisanal spice enterprises, where women from coastal villages carry forward this legacy — and now, the world is beginning to taste what they've always known: real spice has a human heart.

Durga Home Industries — Coastal Flavours

How It Actually Happened

No investors. No marketing budgets. Just women, knowledge, and the right way of doing things.

The Beginning A Problem Worth Solving Coastal Karnataka's agricultural work was seasonal — when the harvest ended, income ended. Durga Home Industries was started with one intention: give women something permanent. The traditional masala blends, sweets and snacks they already knew how to make became the foundation.

The First Products Kundapura Chicken Masala & Sukka The flagship products — Kundapura Chicken Masala Powder and Kundapura Chicken Sukka Masala Powder. Recipes that had already been made for years, now made consistently, packed, and sold. The method was pounding, not grinding. Pounding keeps the temperature low. The volatile oils — the fragrance, the depth — stay intact.

The Range Grew Masala by Masala Rasam powder, sambar powder, fish fry masala, kebab masala — each one a recipe that had already been made for years at home. No preservatives, no additives, no chemicals. Shelf life of six months. A feature, not a limitation.

The Factory Grew No Marketing. Just Word of Mouth. There was no marketing. No advertisements, no campaigns. Hand packaging gave way to machine packaging. Vehicles went on the road for line sales and distribution across Udupi and Dakshina Kannada districts. The FSSAI licence was obtained. The masalas spread across 2–3 districts, then other parts of Karnataka, then outside the state when orders came in.

Beyond Masala Preserving What Was Disappearing Kori Roti — the thin, crisp rice roti native to Mangalore and Udupi. Thambitt — the traditional green gram sweet, dense and nourishing. Coconut oil chakuli. Athras. Complete sets of traditional sweets for baby showers, made the old way. These are not catalogue additions. They are things we make because we know how, and because fewer people do every year.

Today Still Running on the Same Purpose Durga Home Industries — Coastal Flavours — was started to keep jobs for women. To give them something permanent and their own. Every product we make, every packet we seal, every woman on the floor with the same intention.
