If you take efficient growth and food seriously, but not yourself (and you enjoy a good pun), then we might have a job for you! Join our growing Finance team at Deep Indian Kitchen as Senior Financial Analyst!

Deep Indian Kitchen

Deep Indian Kitchen’s parent company, Deep Foods, was founded by the Amin family matriarch, Bhagwati Amin, and is now owned and operated by three generations of the Amin family. In late 2019, Deep Foods launched the Deep Indian Kitchen brand, which includes a line of frozen foods and four NYC / NJ-based Fast Casual Restaurants, to elevate and expand access to Indian food in mainstream America. It has become one of the fastest-growing frozen food brands in the U.S. and the #1 Indian brand on social media with its delicious, authentic, always-made-from-scratch frozen meals and appetizers.

Deep Foods is the leader in Indian cuisine in North America with operations in the US, Canada, India and Australia, and makes frozen meals, breads and appetizers as well as snacks, beverages, dairy and pantry essentials. Since 1977, we have had one simple purpose: to share all of India through made-from-scratch, authentically crafted food and drinks. As a family-owned-and-operated company, it’s our mission that our food not only taste good but also do good. That’s why every purchase of our products benefits the Deepkiran Foundation, which helps provide access to education for underprivileged children in rural India.
