About us

Della Rice, the #1 specialty rice producer in America, has been family-owned and operated since its founding in 1986.

100% of our rice is grown in the United States, and the majority of our rice is sourced from Arkansas farmers, who produce more than 40% of the nation's rice every year. That means we know exactly where our product comes from and what goes into every single bag we produce. Put simply, our goal is to serve quality and purity from our family to yours.

Della Rice, originally Della Gourmet Rice, was created by Lehman Fowler of Brinkley, AR. Mr. Fowler founded Specialty Rice, Inc. and subsequently Della Gourmet Rice in 1986. Della dropped its "Gourmet" name after the retirement of Mr. Fowler in 1994. In 1994, the Ajmera Family purchased the business and continued the legacy Mr. Fowler created.
