Small grain, big aroma
Bangladesh's aromatic rice is famous for its small, slender grains and a natural fragrance that fills the kitchen. Chinigura and Kalijira are the rice of choice for polao, biryani, kheer and festive cooking across South Asian and Gulf households, and demand from diaspora retailers keeps growing every year.
We buy directly from millers in the main growing regions of northern Bangladesh, check each lot for moisture, broken grains and foreign matter, and pack it in the bag size and language you need. Every shipment is sampled and photographed before loading, so the rice you receive matches the sample you approved.
We export aromatic rice only. Bangladesh allows aromatic rice exports under Ministry of Commerce permits, issued to approved exporters in rounds with a set quantity, a shipping deadline and a minimum export price. We apply for the permit for your order and confirm quantity, price and shipping window before you commit.
