Origin & Traceability
Sourced from Multi-State Sourcing
Geographic Origin
Multi-origin from India's major irrigated chilli belts: Andhra Pradesh (Guntur), Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu. Multiple plant pickings over 4–6 months, combined with multi-state coverage, gives near year-round green chilli availability. UAE (₹307 Cr) and Bangladesh (₹134 Cr) are the dominant buyers — Gulf and South Asia preference for Indian green chilli is strong. EU RASFF compliance history for Indian green chilli requires a pesticide MRL test report per shipment.
Harvest Cycle & Availability
When It's Harvested
Extended picking windows — 4–6 months from a single planting — combined with multi-state sourcing (AP, Karnataka, Maharashtra) give near year-round green chilli availability from India. The critical variable is shelf life: 7–14 days on cold chain. Orders placed more than 2 weeks from shipment cannot be fulfilled from in-transit stock. Air freight available for time-critical markets (Europe, Japan) where reefer transit is too long for the shelf-life window.
Multi-season
Multiple harvests from the same plant over 4–6 months. Near year-round in irrigated belts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Buyer Questions, Answered
Fresh green chilli has the shortest shelf life in our entire range: 7–14 days under cold chain (7–10°C). Every hour from harvest to loading matters. We harvest at night or early morning, pre-cool immediately, pack in perforated ventilated cartons, and load to reefer the same day. For the UAE market (5–8 days transit), sea reefer is standard. For destinations beyond 10 days, air freight is the only viable option for maintaining quality on arrival.
Green chilli is a high-residue-risk fresh vegetable in the EU/UK MRL framework. EU applies EC 396/2005 limits; UK applies equivalent post-Brexit limits. Every EU/UK-bound shipment requires a pesticide multi-residue MRL test report. Indian green chilli has historically appeared on RASFF alerts for pesticide non-compliance — we address this by sourcing from contracted farms that use only approved chemistry and undergo pre-harvest residue testing. Specify 'EU MRL compliant' on your enquiry.
Export varieties: long green chilli (6–10cm, mild 5,000–15,000 SHU — the standard export grade), serrano-type (medium 10,000–25,000 SHU), and bird's eye / small hot (80,000+ SHU, UAE/Bangladesh demand). Specify your Scoville requirement and end use (restaurant, processing, retail) and we'll confirm the available variety and current pricing.
Standard MOQ: 1×reefer FCL. Payment: 60% advance + 40% against BL copy. Terms improve — 50/50 on second, 40/60 on third. LC at sight for repeat buyers. Given the 7–14 day shelf life, reefer bookings must align tightly with dispatch.

Every green chilly shipment is graded for size, color uniformity, and firmness. Phytosanitary and MRL test reports provided. Given the short shelf life, cold-chain integrity is critical.
