Rice, pulses & spices — bought at origin, traded from Dubai since 1975.

We fill the container and the supermarket shelf.

Very few companies in this trade hold both ends. Bulk commodity trading and a premium consumer brand run on the same sourcing, the same cleaning lines and the same standard.

From the crop to your port

Six steps. All of them ours.

No broker in the middle. The same team buys, cleans, stores, packs, documents and ships — so a change in specification is a scheduling decision, not a renegotiation.

  1. 01

    Buy in season

    Our staff at origin buy when the crop is right, not when a trader calls.

  2. 02

    Clean & grade

    Machine cleaned, graded and sorted before the container is sealed.

  3. 03

    Warehouse

    Stock held at origin and in Dubai to supply through the off-season.

  4. 04

    Pack

    Bulk bags, jumbo bags or retail packs — ours or your label.

  5. 05

    Document

    Origin, phyto, fumigation, halal and inspection papers for your port.

  6. 06

    Ship

    Loaded at origin or ex-Dubai on FOB, CFR or CIF terms.

Why buyers stay

An integrated trader, not a brokerage.

The hardest thing for an importer is not finding one container. It is finding the same specification again in four months. That is what our model is built for.

  • Direct sourcing. Offices and staff in Madagascar, Benin, Tanzania, Kenya and India — not agents.
  • Consistent outturn. Cleaning and grading happen at origin, before shipment.
  • One margin in the price. Buying direct removes the layer between farm and container.
  • End-to-end support. Packing, documentation, shipping and clearance by our own team.
