Trust Layer

Your Spice Passport

"Every lot has a story." A warehouse containing 100 tonnes of digitally authenticated, residue-tested, origin-traceable cumin with historical quality and price data is an inventory intelligence platform not a logistics asset.

Warehouse Architecture

Three Warehouse Set-ups for you

The network is built in four investment waves not 50 identical warehouses simultaneously. Blast freezing is selective, not standard; dry spices prioritize dehumidification, temperature control, pest exclusion, cleaning, grading, and traceability.

Spice Micro-Vault

Export consolidation + Inventory financing + Global dispatch

CAPEX: $1.5–2.0M indicative

Investor Dashboard

The Investment Thesis

"The warehouse is infrastructure. The intelligence is the moat." If the first 12 hubs average 40,000 sq ft at 65% mature utilisation with 10,000–20,000 tonnes annual throughput and blended handling/storage revenue of $60–100/tonne, the network could target $4–7M annual EBITDA at maturity before proprietary trading or inventory-financing economics.

Revenue Layer 1: Storage

$/pallet/tonne/month across origin and gateway warehouses

Revenue Layer 2: Handling & Processing

Cleaning, QC, grading, drying, sorting, packing, sampling

Revenue Layer 3: Inventory Finance

Warehouse receipts → secured working capital → inventory turnover

Revenue Layer 4: Spice Intelligence

Origin + quality + price + traceability data → premium buyers. This is the 1% alpha.

Shortcuts Taken

Every Lot

No Exceptions

📐 Physical Inspection

What you can see and measure

  • Size / Mesh — Ensures grade conformity and sieve compliance
  • Length / Diameter — Critical for whole spice grading (cinnamon quills, vanilla beans)
  • Bulk Density — Determines fill weight and grade (e.g. pepper 500–550 g/l)
  • Colour — Visual grade indicator; checked against reference standards
  • Broken % — Affects grade, price, and end-use suitability
  • Defective % — Shrivelled, insect-damaged, or mouldy units
  • Foreign Matter % — Stems, stones, dust, extraneous material
  • Purity % — Net clean commodity as a % of total lot weight

⚗️ Chemical & Sensory Analysis

What the lab reveals

  • Moisture % — Primary shelf-life and mould risk indicator
  • Volatile Oil % — Aroma potency; key for oleoresin and extraction buyers
  • Essential Oil Profile — GC/MS fingerprint of key aroma compounds
  • Active Compound % — Piperine (pepper), Curcumin (turmeric), Vanillin (vanilla), Crocin/Picrocrocin/Safranal (saffron), Eugenol (cloves/cinnamon)
  • ASTA Colour — Standardised colour units for chilli and paprika
  • SHU (Scoville) — Heat unit measurement for chilli and pepper
  • Coumarin — Mandatory for cinnamon/cassia (EU limits apply)

🛡️ Food Safety & Microbiology

Non-negotiable compliance checks

  • Aflatoxin B1 / Total — EU/FDA/Codex MRL compliance; critical for all spices
  • Ochratoxin A — Mandatory for chilli, pepper, ginger
  • Salmonella — Zero tolerance; mandatory microbiological test
  • E. coli — Indicator of hygiene and contamination risk
  • TPC (Total Plate Count) — Overall microbial load assessment
  • Yeast & Mould — Shelf-life and storage quality indicator
  • Pesticide MRL — Multi-residue screening against EU/US/Codex limits
  • Heavy Metals — Lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury — regulatory compliance
  • Residual Solvents — Mandatory for oleoresins and extracts

📦 Trade & Commercial Documentation

The paperwork that protects your shipment

  • Incoterm — EXW / FOB / CFR / CIF — defines risk and cost transfer point
  • MOQ — Minimum order quantity per origin and grade
  • Packing — Jute, PP bags, vacuum, cartons — as per buyer spec
  • Origin & Harvest Year — Traceability anchor for every lot
  • Lot Size — Full container / partial / consolidated
  • HS Code — Correct tariff classification for customs clearance
  • Certificate of Origin — Country of origin authentication
  • Phytosanitary Certificate — Plant health clearance for import
  • Organic Certification — USDA NOP / EU Organic / India NPOP
  • GI Certification — Geographic Indication compliance (Kampot, Kashmir Saffron, etc.)
  • Traceability Report — Farm-to-warehouse chain of custody
  • Lab COA — Third-party lab Certificate of Analysis for every parameter
