Spices & seasonings.
Whole and ground spices sourced from Indian growing belts, cleaned and packed to buyer specification, with lab testing arranged per consignment.
What we can source for you.
Spices are our first priority sector. We work with cleaning and processing units in the main Indian belts — Erode and Nizamabad for turmeric, Guntur and Byadgi for chilli, Unjha for cumin, Idukki for pepper and cardamom — and consolidate orders against a written specification agreed with you before production begins.
Whole or ground form, botanical and commercial variety, origin, purity, moisture and powder mesh are agreed before quotation. Spice blends are offered only when a suitable supplier and formulation are available.
Testing can be arranged per consignment through an accredited laboratory for the parameters required by the buyer and destination market. Steam sterilisation is available only for products and lots where the selected supplier confirms the capability; it is not represented as standard for every spice.
