Our Story
Why We Started ALTAN
ALTAN began with a simple frustration: too much of what's sold as "healthy" in India isn't actually healthy once you read the label. Added sugars hidden behind natural-sounding names. Palm oil used as a cheap stabilizer. Preservatives added so a product can sit on a shelf for a year.
We started ALTAN in Kerala with peanut butter as our first product — because it's a food so many people trust as "healthy," yet so many brands quietly compromise on. We wanted to make one that didn't.
Our Mission
Food That Adds Value to Your Health, Not Just Your Cart
ALTAN exists to make genuinely natural, clean-label food accessible — not a luxury reserved for premium price tags. We check every ingredient against one question: does this need to be here? If the answer is no, it doesn't go in the jar.
Our Promise
What You'll Never Find in an ALTAN Product
- No refined sugar
- No preservatives
- No emulsifiers
- No stabilizers
- No hydrogenated oil
- No palm oil
Just real, natural ingredients — because that's the only
kind of "healthy" we believe in.
Where We're Headed
More Than Peanut Butter
ALTAN is growing into a full range of natural, healthy food products beyond peanut butter — all built on the same standard of honesty. If you're new here because of our peanut butter, welcome — there's more coming.
