Turmeric
Whole polished fingers and ground turmeric, supplied against an agreed curcumin level.
Turmeric is supplied as whole polished fingers and as ground powder. Curcumin content is the parameter that sets both price and application, so it is agreed and tested before dispatch.
Telangana and neighbouring Andhra Pradesh are among India’s principal turmeric belts, which keeps our sourcing close to Hyderabad.
