Which Indian port ships to my market?

Maharashtra onions usually leave through Nhava Sheva; onions from South India can ship from Chennai, Tuticorin or Kochi. We choose the port by the onion's origin and the sailing to your destination, to keep the time in transit short.

What affects the price of Indian onions?

The harvest season, crop size and weather, domestic demand, India's export policy at the time and freight rates all move the price. Quotes are valid for a short, stated period and confirmed when the contract is signed.

Which countries import onions from India?

Indian onions are shipped to neighbouring South Asian countries, Southeast Asia — including Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam — and the Gulf, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain. Versa Traders quotes to buyers worldwide.

When is the best time to buy onions from India?

India harvests onions in three seasons. The rabi crop, harvested from about March to May, stores best and supplies much of the year's export trade. Kharif and late-kharif crops are harvested from about October to March and are best shipped quickly.
