Fabstor is a certified B2B exporter and bulk supplier of whole dried Indian red chillies (Capsicum annuum / Lal Mirch), catering to global spice processors, oleoresin extractors, seasoning compounders, and supermarket brands across the USA, Europe, Middle East (GCC), and Southeast Asia. Sourced directly from premier growing belts in Guntur, Prakasam (Andhra Pradesh), Khammam (Telangana), and Haveri/Byadgi (Karnataka), our chillies are sun-dried, machine-cleaned, and optical color-sorted.
We supply whole stem, stemless, and crushed chilli grades tailored by heat pungency (15,000 to 100,000+ SHU) and natural ASTA color value (40 to 120+ ASTA). Backed by a 50+ year parent supply legacy (Laxmi Group, est. 1975), we ensure strict aflatoxin controls for full container loads (FCL) and consolidated mixed-spice shipments (LCL) worldwide.

Fabstor provides customized export packing to prevent crushing, retain natural oils, and protect red color value during long ocean voyages:
10kg, 20kg, 25kg, and 50kg poly-lined food-grade PP woven bags or breathable export jute/gunny sacks.
5kg and 10kg 5-ply corrugated cartons recommended for whole stemless chillies to prevent pod breakage.
Retail stand-up pouches (100g, 200g, 500g, 1kg) and heat-sealed clear bags customized for destination import regulations (US-FDA, EU, GCC GSO).
20ft container loads approx. 7–8.5 MT; 40ft High Cube container loads approx. 14–15.5 MT; mixed LCL consolidations available.
High-heat varieties like S17 Teja (60k–100k SHU) are ideal for extraction and spicy preparations, while Byadgi (100–140 ASTA) provides intense deep red natural coloring with low heat.
Stemless chillies eliminate buyer-side sorting labor and increase grinding yield; whole chillies with stems offer cost economy for industrial milling.
Controlled drying maintaining moisture between 8%–10% prevents aflatoxin (B1/Total) contamination and mold development during shipping.
Bright, uniform red skin indicates proper curing and new-crop freshness; faded yellowish-orange or darkened pods signal old stock or sun-bleaching.
Lab-verified 100% natural chillies certified free from banned synthetic colorants like Sudan I–IV and Rhodamine B.
We export S17 Teja (extra hot), Sanam/S4 (medium hot), Byadgi (high color, low heat), and Wonder Hot varieties.
Our chillies range from 15,000 to 100,000+ SHU in pungency and 50 to 140 ASTA in natural extractable red color.
