About
Karma Nuts is home of the Wrapped cashew, which retains its naturals skins for 2x the fiber, antioxidants like blueberries, and an amazing taste and crunch - the best cashews on earth!
The mission at Karma Nuts is simple - to put goodness back into the world. We believe in using high quality, simple foods to fuel our bodies and giving back to the communities in which we live and work - donating 10% of profits or 1% of sales (whichever is larger) to organizations benefiting the health and well-being of children in our communities. We take pride in making wholesome, healthy snacks that deliver extra nutrition and the most delicious taste to happy customers everywhere.
Founding Story
Karma Nuts was founded by Ganesh Nair, who married his Masters in Health Science & Technology from MIT and 10+ years of diabetes care work with his family's deep legacy in the cashew business. After decades of proliferation in sugary snacks and fried junk food, he saw an opportunity to develop an alternative to the oil-fried cashews that were normally seen on supermarket shelves. Karma Nuts introduced a line of minimally processed cashews, including the Wrapped® cashew (the most delectable, crunchy, and nutritionally-dense cashew) which was developed by the Nair family leveraging their 85+ years of experience in the cashew business. In 2016, the Wrapped cashew was recognized as the “Best New Snack” at the world’s largest Natural Products show, Expo West.
Karma Nuts has since developed many flavors of both Wrapped and Roasted (which are the more conventional “skin-less” cashews) cashews, using All-Natural, Non-GMO Project Verified, Vegan, and Kosher ingredients and are available through both online and brick & mortar retailers.
