our Trade Division, we are presently focused on Dry Red Chillis and
other Indian Spices export. We having our team members placed at the
strategic points of cultivation of different spices, including dry
red chillies, so that the materials can be collected directly from
the farmers so that we can provide the materials at rock bottom
prices to our country and overseas.

in India. It is estimated that India produced approx 1.4 Million
Tons of dry chilli.
