For turmeric, we prioritize qualified certified-organic supply when it fits the buyer’s specification, volume and commercial requirement. Certification is verified for the applicable product, facility and transaction before an organic offer is made.
Powder
Turmeric
Turmeric powder is both a culinary spice and a high-impact natural color ingredient. We source it around botanical identity, visual strength, flavor, curcuminoid expectations, mesh and risk-based controls for heavy metals, residues and adulteration.

Our sourcing standard
Organic capability prioritized. Every approved lot traceable.
The approved specification is connected to the applicable facility, production lot, COA, treatment, test evidence and shipment records for the transaction.
Why we launched Turmeric
A product chosen for a reason.
We launched turmeric because the United States is the world’s largest turmeric importer and India is the category’s dominant export origin. That combination creates a clear opportunity to connect U.S. buyers with qualified Indian processors while differentiating through tighter specification, testing and lot documentation.
