What Quality Means for US?
Sustainable Spice Road
We’ve simplified the spice road. It was long and crooked.
It is now a beautiful straight line.
The world of spice trade has historically suffered from this clear structural discrepancy,
betweenadded value on one hand, and profits on the other. This has been the case for centuries.
That’s why you rarely got the quality and purity we cultivate. That’s why
farming communities, around the world,
almost never received their fair share of the value they produce.
That’s also how the very livelihood and sustainability, of communities and environment alike, got
forgotten.
Traceability allows us to take appropriate action in case of an issue with the product. Both at farm
and
factory level we have
extended programs in place to control the level of pesticides, allergens and foreign matter
contamination.
Quality & Safety
We can deliver a reliable and consistent supply of selected ingredients. All our spices are
controlled and of high-quality.
Our spices are non-GMO, non-irradiated and naturally free
of gluten, allergens and any additives, colorings, anti-caking agents and other
fillers.
We provide honest and wholesome ingredients that are grown in their natural
climate, resulting in the best possible quality and taste. Every lot is thoroughly tested
for volatile oil, moisture content, microbiology and pesticides.
Our understanding of
quality goes beyond the characteristics of a product. A true qualitative product is made
with attention for the environmental and social impact of the production process. Issues we
deem important in this regard can be found above.
HACCP procedures have been
implemented.We are as well undergoing the ISO9001, Halal and Kosher in order to comply with
all relevant national and international regulations regarding food safety.
The same way

satisfaction is of utmost importance for us. All products can be delivered customized to
customer’s needs and specifications and we always seek to do so in the most cost-effective
manner.
Direct Farming
It is imperative for us to work with reliable sources such as APLV our prefered partner in Madagascar.
Our goal is offer our experience beyond just providing products. We share knowledge, accessibility to farmers & the story
behind each of our spices.
APLV works directly with our farms and partner smallholder farmers to

supply chain.
