Researcher, Scientist, Entrepreneur and a Pioneer in bridging Ayurveda

and Modern Medicine to bene�t lives across the globe.

Dr. Majeed played a signi�cant role in 'nutraceuticals' and

'cosmeceuticals' industries, across the globe to provide 'total wellness.'

After 14 years of working with reputable names in the American

pharmaceutical industry, Dr. Majeed �rst set up Sabinsa Corporation in

New Jersey, USA in 1988. Sabinsa's mission was to provide alternative

and complementary natural products, using innovative approaches for

human nutrition and well-being.

In 1991, Dr. Majeed set up Sami Labs Ltd in Bangalore, India, which does

ground-breaking work in unlocking the mystery of Indian Ayurvedic

Medicinal Plants, extracting the goodness and gifting the world with

good health, by combining ancient Ayurveda and modern medicine. Its

research facility in Bangalore has over 200 scientists involved in

specialized work in areas of phytochemistry, organic chemistry, peptide

chemistry, biological chemistry, plant biotechnology and fermentation

technology.

Under the leadership of Dr. Majeed, the Sami-Sabinsa group has grown

into a health science multinational organization with its presence in USA,

Europe, Japan, Australia, China, UAE, South Africa, Vietnam, Russia,

South Korea and Malaysia. It employs over a 1000+ people across its

seven manufacturing locations in India and one in USA.

Practitioner of philanthropy

Today, Dr. Majeed gives back in many ways, perhaps most signi�cantly

through the Dr. Majeed Foundation, which supports the children of the

poor families for their education.

Dr. Majeed recognizes the importance of providing support for

education, which is the centre stone of the foundation. Today, the

foundation focuses on providing scholarship for students who need

�nancial support, irrespective of their caste, creed or religion.

The core objective of the foundation however is to support the children

until they complete their education - making it a sustainable exercise.

SAMI SPICES is owned and operated by Sami Labs Ltd. The company

dates back to 1988 when Dr. Muhammed Majeed established Sabinsa

Corporation in the state of New Jersey, USA with the objective of

importing and marketing generic drugs into the US for the drug

molecules coming off patents. Very soon he introduced it to the US

market a new line of products based on Indian herbs.

It was Dr. Majeed who introduced to the Americans that Ayurveda from

India can act as a complete curative to their various ailments. The

persistent efforts made by Dr. Majeed in the early nineties in the �eld of

Ayurveda did reap bene�ts among the Americans. To facilitate the

increased demand for innovative application-based products, Sami

Labs Limited (formerly known as Sami Chemicals & Extracts Limited)

was set up in 1991 in Bangalore as a research and development facility.

Today the main thrust and focus of Sami is on new product development

and market oriented research. To cater to the expanding global market,

Sami Labs has fully owned subsidiaries in USA, Europe, Japan,

Australia, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, UAE, China, Russia and South
