Why buy basmati through a Thai rice exporter?

Many importers and food-service groups buy both Thai rice and basmati. Sourcing basmati through the same supplier lets you consolidate orders, documents and communication, and in some cases combine products in planned shipments.

We are always clear about origin: our basmati rice comes from India or Pakistan, never from Thailand, and the origin appears on the quotation, certificate of origin and bag labels.

What is sella basmati rice?

Sella basmati is parboiled basmati rice. It is steamed in the husk before milling, which makes the grains firmer and less likely to break. Golden sella has a deeper golden colour.
