Description
- Origin: Aloo Tikki has its roots in North India, especially in the states of Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and Punjab, where it originated as a popular street food. Over the years, it has evolved into a mainstream snack available across the country and in international Indian restaurants. Commercial Aloo Tikki production involves sourcing locally grown potatoes, peas, and Indian spices, followed by hygienic preparation in FSSAI and ISO-certified food processing units. Some brands also offer gluten-free, vegan, and organic versions to cater to specific dietary requirements abroad.
- Distribution: Aloo Tikki is distributed through a variety of channels including frozen food distributors, supermarkets (Reliance Fresh, Big Bazaar, More), quick-service restaurants (QSRs), and online platforms like BigBasket, Amazon, and Blinkit. Brands such as Haldiram’s, ITC Master Chef, McCain, Sumeru, and Bikaji dominate the ready-to-fry and ready-to-eat frozen snacks segment. For global distribution, Indian exporters collaborate with ethnic food wholesalers, Indian grocery chains, and mainstream supermarkets offering frozen sections. A strong cold-chain logistics system is essential for maintaining product quality, with temperature-controlled storage and transportation throughout the supply chain.
