Curry Leaves — overview

Fresh and dried curry leaves for retail, food service and processing.

Fresh curry leaf is highly perishable and moves by air in small boxes; dried and frozen forms ship by sea and keep longer. We pack to your market’s requirements and provide the phytosanitary certificate where permitted.

Trade-policy note: Some importing countries restrict fresh curry leaf because it can host certain plant pests. Dried or frozen curry leaf is often easier to import. Please confirm your country’s current import conditions with your plant-health authority before ordering fresh leaf; we are happy to advise on documentation.
