Whole Foods Market Stores Ahead of National Rollout
Edison, N.J. — September 10, 2026 — Truly Indian, the U.S. retail brand of ADF Foods,
today announced the expansion of its frozen Naan portfolio with the launch of
two new vegan offerings, Tikka Masala Naan and “Butter Chik’n” Naan.
“Butter Chik’n” Naan will debut exclusively at select Whole Foods Market
locations through October 31, 2026, while Tikka Masala Naan expands to select Whole
Foods Market, Meijer and select Sprouts Farmers Market stores, bringing Truly
Indian’s frozen Naan portfolio to consumers nationwide.
As
the fastest-growing and the leading frozen Naan brand in the market,
Truly Indian continues to drive growth in the frozen bread category by bringing
new shoppers into the aisle through bold flavor innovation, clean 100% Indian
sourced ingredients, premium quality, and products that meet today's demand for
globally inspired meals.
Made
fresh from scratch in India, Truly Indian Naan is handcrafted by generational
artisans using traditional recipes. Each Naan is hand-stretched, baked in
traditional tandoor clay-ovens and flash frozen to lock in flavor, texture, and
quality. The result is a Naan with a lightly crisp, charred exterior and a
soft, fluffy, pillowy interior that delivers a handmade street-food flavor
experience at home.
The
new vegan collection includes
Vegan “Butter Chik’n” Naan (Exclusive at Whole Foods Market
through October 31, 2026): topped with our rich, creamy, house-made vegan butter chicken sauce
for a bold, comforting bite!
Vegan Tikka Masala Naan: finished with house-made, deliciously tangy
Tikka Masala sauce.
Vegan Green Chili Naan: topped with mildly spiced, fresh green
chilies and cilantro
Also in the Truly Indian frozen Naan portfolio:
Tandoori Plain Naan
Tandoori Garlic Naan
The
vegan Naan collection is the first frozen vegan Naan lineup made with
traditional Indian craftsmanship and is certified Non-GMO Project Verified,
Low Glycemic, Kosher, and Halal. Handmade with simple, wholesome
ingredients and free from preservatives and dough conditioners, the vegan Naan
delivers the rich taste and texture consumers expect.
Made
with a generous helping of rich, authentic sauce, Tikka Masala and “Butter
Chik’n” Naan are offered in a 3-count (10.6 oz) pack, while Green
Chili Naan is available in a 4-count (12 oz) pack. The varieties
carry a suggested retail price of $6.99, delivering exceptional value
compared with many premium frozen Naan offerings. The frozen format locks in
fresh-baked taste and texture while providing the convenience of extended
freezer storage, allowing consumers to enjoy authentic Indian Naan whenever
they choose.
Whether
paired with curries, soups, grilled meats and vegetables, or used as the base
for pizzas, sandwiches, and wraps, Truly Indian Naan offers consumers a
versatile way to enjoy bold Indian flavors any day of the week.
"Our
mission is to bring the real, wholesome foods of India directly to your table
while preserving the traditions, craftsmanship, and communities that make them
special," said Rasa Kumar, Senior Vice President of Truly Indian. "Handcrafted
in India with love using 100% Indian ingredients, our frozen Naan reflects
generations of culinary expertise while supporting local farmers and
communities. We're proud to partner with Whole Foods Market, Sprouts Farmers
Market, and Meijer to help more families 'Taste the Real India' through
