HOS Global Foods’ Flagship Brand Laxmi Honoured with Prestigious ANA Multicultural Excellence Award

Celebrating Authenticity and Connection, Laxmi Becomes the First South Asian Indian Brand to Receive the Esteemed ANA Multicultural Excellence Award

NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HOS Global Foods, the parent company of Laxmi, has made history as the first South Asian Indian brand to be honored with the ANA Multicultural Excellence Award 2025. A recognition that celebrates brands that authentically connect with diverse communities through powerful storytelling.

For over 50 Years, Laxmi has stood as a symbol of trust, tradition, and togetherness, bringing the authentic Flavors of South Asia to countless homes across North America. What began in 1972 as a heartfelt effort to help immigrants recreate the taste of home has grown into a legacy that continues to unite generations through food and culture. 

The award-winning Diwali campaign captured the spirit of authentic connection, illustrating how food transcends distances bridging hearts and homes, and reminding every South Asian family that no matter where they are, as long as there’s Laxmi, there’s home.

The heartfelt TV commercial titled “Diwali Ki Mithas Badhaane Ke Liye, Laxmi Hain Na” beautifully captures the story of an Indian couple living abroad whose simple yet profound gesture of inviting Indian students to celebrate Diwali together, transforms feelings of homesickness into moments of shared warmth, laughter, and belonging to the community.

The campaign struck a deep emotional chord with audiences, celebrating how traditions and food can turn even distant places into homes filled with love and connection. Through every frame, it echoed Laxmi’s timeless promise to bring people closer through the taste of home, because when it comes to preserving the warmth of tradition and togetherness, “Laxmi Hain Na”

This award reflects the passion and dedication of our team, our agency partners, and the South Asian community whose stories inspired this campaign.”
