ABOUT US
Our Company
Chark is a family-owned business born from a love story and a shared passion for bold, vibrant flavors. When Chanier met Gaaya, he created a hot sauce inspired by her Tamil heritage. It was an instant hit with her family. So much so, that when the couple married, they placed bottles of it, alongside a second sauce representing his Guyanese roots, on every wedding table. Guests couldn’t get enough. Some even snuck bottles from other tables. That’s when they knew they had something special.
But the story of Chark started long before that day.
Chanier had always been a passionate home cook, known for his inventive recipes and Instagram-worthy meals. He loved sharing his creations, especially around the holidays, where food became the centerpiece of every gathering. Over the years, he experimented with sauces using surplus peppers from the family garden, gradually developing the bold, unique flavors that would later define Chark.
At the wedding, two of those homemade sauces, Hibiscus Spiced Heat and Wild & Savoury, were placed on each table. The response was immediate. Guests raved that it was “the most flavorful hot sauce” they’d ever tried. Others preferred the second bottle even more. Before long, people were swapping seats, sneaking extras, and asking where they could get more.
That unforgettable day confirmed what friends and family had long suspected: these sauces deserved a bigger audience.
Today, Chark Sauce and Spice Co. continues that tradition. Every bottle tells a story of heritage, of community, of flavor. We’re excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait to share the many bold new creations we have in store.
This is just the beginning of the Flavour First Revolution.
