How long is the lead time from order confirmation to shipment?

After spec sign-off and sample approval, typical lead time is 10–14 days to container stuffing at port, plus the steamer lay-time. Documentation (phyto, FSSAI, COO, BL) is couriered within 48 hours of sail. Live arrival tracking is shared with the buyer until sign-off at port of arrival.

Can you offer private label or buyer-branded packaging?

Yes. We offer private-label and contract-manufacturing packaging in 5 kg, 10 kg, 25 kg and 50 kg sizes, including BOPP printed bags, woven PP, jute, and retail cartons. Artwork can be supplied by the buyer or co-developed with our packaging desk.

How can a buyer verify Vilora Impex's credentials?

Each credential (IEC on DGFT, FSSAI on FoSCoS, APEDA, GSTIN) can be verified directly on the relevant Government of India registry — links are provided on our provenance page. Request the actual numbers via the inquiry desk; we share them on signed buyer request, not publicly, to prevent misuse.

Do you ship spice and dry fruit alongside rice?

Yes. Alongside rice we export Indian spices (chilli, turmeric, cumin, coriander, fennel, cardamom, garam masala blends), dry fruit and nuts (cashew W180–W400, almond, raisin, fig), pulses (toor, chana, moong), and seasonal fresh produce (Kesar, Alphonso and Banganapalli mangoes) on cold-chain.

Where is Vilora Impex based?

Vilora Impex is headquartered in Rajkot, Gujarat, India. Origin sourcing covers Gujarat, Punjab, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kashmir and Rajasthan, with consolidation at Mundra Port and Kandla Port for export.

Are you a 1121 basmati rice exporter from India?

Yes. 1121 Basmati (Sella, Steam, Raw) is our largest basmati export volume. Average grain length 8.40 mm+, aged minimum 12 months, sortex-cleaned to 1%–15% broken on buyer specification.

What is the difference between Sella, Steam and Raw basmati?

Sella (golden parboiled) is steamed before milling, giving longer cooked-grain length and a golden colour. Steam is white-translucent. Raw is the natural milled grain — fluffiest cooked profile but most fragile in transit.

What is your MOQ for basmati export?

One 20ft FCL container (~25 MT). LCL accepted for trial orders.

Do you do private-label basmati packing?

Yes. 5/10/25/50 kg BOPP printed, jute, retail cartons. Artwork from buyer or co-developed.

How is the basmati aged?

Minimum 12 months aged in controlled silos at mill before milling and export. Aging improves aroma, reduces stickiness when cooked, and lowers breakage in transit.

Which Indian ports does Vilora Impex ship basmati from?

Mundra and Kandla ports in Gujarat. Both are deep-water container ports with direct service to Jebel Ali, Dammam, Doha, Salalah, Aqaba, Mombasa, Malé, Singapore and Port Klang.
