Premium Sorting: We have manual labor teams to hand-pluck the stems (Stemless), which increases the usable volume for the buyer.
The Benefit: For industrial grinders, stemless chilli means 100% pure powder with no woody waste.
Food Safety: For exports to Europe and high-end markets, we test for Aflatoxin and Sudan Dyes (illegal red colouring). We guarantee our chilli is 100% natural.
Culinary: Used whole in tempering (Tadka) or ground into powder for curries.
Hot Sauce: The primary ingredient for Peri-Peri, Sriracha, and Chili Paste.
Oleoresin: Extracted to produce natural Red Colour (Paprika Oleoresin) and Capsaicin (Heat extract) for pharmaceuticals (pain relief patches).
The Solution: Chillies are voluminous. We compress the bags to fit more into a container (approx 14 MT in a 40ft HQ).
The Benefit: We use Silica Gel packets in the container to absorb excess moisture and prevent mold during the voyage.
