Ginger

Zingiber Officinale

Organic & Conventional

Ginger is harvested and washed by our small farmer partners. We sell fresh and dried product. Dried ginger is sliced and sundried at our factory to a maximum moisture level of 12%, verified by calibrated moisture meters. All product is metal detected.

Minimum order quantity of 100 kilograms. A twenty foot container holds around 12 metric tons of dried product and a 40 foot container around 24 metric tons of dried product. Dry containers are lined with dry bags to absorb moisture and kraft paper. Fresh product is shipped in a refrigerated container.

Standard packaging is food grade polypropylene bags with a Tanzanian Bureau Standards certificate. Environmentally friendly food grade jute or locally sourced sisal options are available for a premium.

What the process looks like

All our spices are processed at our factory in Muheza, Tanga, Tanzania where our experienced team uses a range of processing equipment including graders, slicers, crushers, dryers, washers, air separation, metal detection and gravity spirals.
