Not all spices are the same. For wholesalers and importers, understanding grading standards in Green Cardamom, Black Pepper, and Clove is crucial to getting the best value.
Cardamom Grades: 6mm (commercial), 7mm (superior), 8mm+ (export premium).
- Black Pepper Grades: Malabar, Tellicherry, and bold pepper – each varies in size and piperine content.
- Clove Grades: Export Grade A (high oil content, aromatic) vs Grade B (commercial).
- Why Grades Matter: Higher grades fetch premium prices and are preferred in international markets.
Conclusion:
Whether you are a distributor, food processor, or exporter, understanding grades ensures you source the right quality for your market needs.
