ABOUT DELLA RICE

Crafting Better Rice Since 1986

Della Rice was founded in 1986 by Lehman Fowler of Brinkley, Arkansas, under the name Della Gourmet Rice. After his retirement in 1994, the Ajmera Family acquired the business, expanded it nationwide, and introduced the organic product line now sold as Yoga Organic Rice.

Since 2020, Della has been proudly owned and operated by Stephen and Micah Hilsdon, both born and raised in Brinkley. With deep roots in the rice industry, they took ownership of Specialty Rice to preserve local jobs and uphold Della’s long-standing values. Stephen began as General Manager in 2006, later joined by Micah as Quality Manager.
