Founded in 2022 by paediatrician Ridhi Kaur, Kikibix is a Gurgaon-based D2C nutrition snacking startup.

The company claims its products are free from refined flour, sugars, palm oil, preservatives and chemicals.

Ridhi Kaur, founder of Kikibix said in her ten years of medical practice, she observed that most of the patients had poor diet habits leading to poor nutrition and immunity.

“The fact is that so-called healthy snacks in the market are actually filled with high starches, flavouring agents, hidden sugars, refined flour, refined oils, chemicals, and empty calories. Post-pandemic, 78% of the Indian population feels the need to shift to healthy snacking but, 50% feel the existing snacks are not tasty. Our goal is to make genuinely healthy products with clean ingredients which are also tasty,” she added.
