About us

An Indian rice exporter built on quality and trust

We connect India's rice mills with importers, wholesalers and distributors across the world.

Who we are

KSDR International Trade is an import and export business connecting global markets with quality products from India. Our focus is rice — the crop India grows and ships more of than any other country.

We deal in two product lines. Basmati rice — 1121, 1509 and Traditional varieties prized for extra-long grains and a distinct fragrance — goes largely to the Middle East, Europe and the USA. Non-Basmati rice — Parboiled, Sona Masoori, Swarna and Raw White — is the staple bulk commodity in demand across African and Asian markets.

For every order we agree the specification in writing, inspect the lot before loading and prepare the complete export document set, so buyers know exactly what is on the water.
