Common questions from importers about sourcing, quality, and exporting Onion (Pyaz) from India.
-
Are Indian Onions available for export throughout the year?Yes, Indian Onions are available year-round due to multiple harvest seasons (Kharif, Late Kharif, and Rabi). The peak export window typically runs from December to May and from August to October, ensuring a consistent supply of both red and yellow varieties.
-
How do you ensure pesticide MRL compliance for Onion exports?Every shipment undergoes rigorous testing in NABL-accredited laboratories. We comply with the strict Maximum Residue (MRL) standards of the destination country, and provide mandatory Phytosanitary Certification from the NPPO to ensure it is pest-free and safe for consumption.
-
What are the common pack sizes and shipping requirements for Onions?We export onions in 5kg, 10kg, and 25kg red or yellow mesh bags to maintain ventilation. For international transit, we use dry ventilated containers for shorter distances and refrigerated (reefer) containers for long-haul shipments to preserve freshness and prevent sprouting.

Which are the primary export destinations for Aethon Onions?Our primary export markets include the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait), Southeast Asia (Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Indonesia), and certain European nations. We supply to both high-volume wholesale markets and large scale retail supermarket chains.
