Sharwood’s is a heritage British brand that has been a staple of United Kingdom pantries for over a century. Founded in 1889 by James Allen Sharwood, the brand was built on the premise of bringing the diverse and vibrant flavors of Asia—specifically India—to the Western market. Its early success was driven by its iconic Chutneys and Curry Powders, which helped popularize Indian cuisine in the UK.
Today, Sharwood's continues to specialize in Indian, Chinese, and Thai ingredients. While the brand is quintessentially British in its identity and origin, specific products like the Chef's Special Curry Kits are crafted in India to maintain authentic flavor profiles and use regional spices. This allows the brand to bridge the gap between traditional Indian culinary techniques and the convenience required by modern home cooks.
The brand is currently owned by Premier Foods, one of the largest food manufacturers in the United Kingdom. Under Premier Foods' stewardship, Sharwood’s has maintained its position as a market leader in the Asian cooking category, benefiting from a robust distribution network throughout Europe and beyond.
