The story of a spice—from being a seed on an Indian farm to landing in a buyer’s warehouse overseas—is one of complexity, discipline, and reliability. This comprehensive guide takes you through every essential phase of the export journey, highlighting the standards Luna Exim upholds for every shipment.
The story of our spices is one of dedication, transparency, and care—from Indian farmers to your port of call.
Step 1: Sourcing from Reputed Farms
Our journey begins with relationships—with spice farmers who uphold best practices, sustainable cultivation, and careful harvest timing. Site visits and crop monitoring guarantee optimal quality from the field itself.
Step 2: Primary Processing and Quality Gatekeeping
Once harvested, spices are cleaned, sorted, graded, and sun- or machine-dried. Our team, often working within the same rural communities, inspects for contamination, pests, or visual defects, ensuring that only the best lots move forward.
Step 3: Secondary Processing and Packing
In modern, hygienic processing units, spices are further ground, powdered, or blended according to client specification. Metal detection, laminar flow, and rigorous sanitization protocols prevent adulteration. Packing is done in food-grade, tamper-proof bags or containers with all export labeling and coding.
Step 4: Certification, Compliance, and Shipment
Each batch undergoes third-party lab tests for pesticides, aflatoxins, heavy metals, and microbial load. Certificates of Analysis, phytosanitary, origin, and organic compliance are collated. Our logistics team coordinates with shippers to ensure timely movement—by sea freight, air cargo, or multimodal.
