Satvik Certified is India's premier independent food verification and certification framework โ ensuring ingredient purity, kitchen discipline, and traditional Satvik food handling standards through rigorous, recurring audits.
In a world of unverified claims, Satvik Certified provides the gold standard in transparent, audit-backed Satvik food verification โ giving consumers confidence and businesses credibility.
Every ingredient is scrutinized against our comprehensive Satvik standards. No guesswork โ only verified, documented purity.
On-site inspections of kitchen practices, storage, cleaning protocols, and cross-contamination prevention โ because purity starts in the process.
Certification isn't a one-time stamp. We conduct 4 inspections every 24 months โ including surprise visits โ to ensure continuous compliance.
Every certificate comes with a unique QR code. Consumers can instantly scan and verify a business's certification status in real time.
Any food business can apply. Certification is awarded purely on compliance with food preparation standards โ not on the identity of owners or staff.
