What to verify before you order
With a smaller public footprint, the basic facts come first.
- Ask for the year of establishment and the partnership registration, and for the FSSAI licence. Confirm the licence is for manufacturing at the Talgajarda address.
- Its IndiaMART page uses the word exporter only, while Nutrada and the website describe processing. Ask to see the drying line and confirm your lot is made there.
- BRC and FSSC 22000 appear only on Nutrada. Ask for both certificate numbers and check them in the BRCGS directory and the FSSC register.
- Ask for the daily drying capacity, so you can judge whether your volume and timing fit.
- If it grows its own onion, ask which fields and for spray records, then test the lot for pesticide residues against your market's limits.
- Ask whether peanut butter is made or handled on site and how onion and garlic are protected from cross-contact.
- For the US, ask for the FDA facility registration number.
