Who we are

A trading house built around origin control and cold-chain discipline.

Founded in 2004 in Hyderabad, we began as a single-commodity rice exporter. Today we operate procurement clusters across 14 Indian states and distribution hubs in the UAE, Singapore, the United States and the European Union — moving over 6,200 containers a year.

Every lot carries a traceability code linking the finished pallet back to the grower cluster, the lab report and the shipping documents.
