Dried Red Chillies

Dried red chillies are one of India's most important and widely exported agricultural commodities, valued globally for their pungency, deep red colour, and high capsaicin content. Used whole, crushed, or ground in a wide range of culinary and food processing applications, they are a critical raw material for spice manufacturers, food companies, restaurant chains, and condiment producers worldwide.

Geodhara International exports premium dried red chillies sourced through our trusted supplier network in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, India's largest chilli-producing regions. Available in popular varieties including Teja (S17), S4, Byadagi, Kashmiri, and Guntur Sannam, our dried chillies are machine-cleaned, sun-dried or mechanically dried to optimal moisture, and graded by colour value, pungency, and size for consistent export-grade supply.

We supply importers, spice processors, food manufacturers, and wholesale distributors across the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas with bulk supply, competitive pricing, and complete export documentation.
