Nashik Red and Pink Onions for Export
Two varieties, two kinds of buyer. Tell us where the onions are going and we'll help you pick the right one.
Nashik Red Onion
This is the onion most export buyers ask for. Deep red skin, firm flesh and a sharp, pungent bite that holds up in cooking. Red onions from Nashik also store well, which matters when a container spends weeks at sea.
Nashik Pink Onion
Lighter in color and milder in taste. Pink onions are crisp and juicy, so buyers supplying retail shelves and salad markets often prefer them. Every lot is sorted for size, so each bag looks even.
Why Nashik Onions Lead Indian Exports
Buyers looking for an onion exporter in Nashik are really after one thing: Nashik onions. The district grows more onions than any other part of India, and Lasalgaon, in the same district, runs Asia's largest onion market.
Timing matters too. Onions from the rabi harvest, picked between March and May, keep for months in storage. That's why Nashik can supply export markets for most of the year, not just at harvest.
For you, that means steady volumes and onions with dry, tight skins that survive long transit.

Packed to Breathe, Shipped to Last
Onions are living produce. Seal them in and they sweat, sprout and rot. So we pack fresh onions in breathable mesh or jute bags and load them into ventilated or temperature-controlled containers, depending on how long the voyage is. Onions from the Nashik belt usually ship out of Nhava Sheva (JNPT) port near Mumbai, one of India's busiest container ports.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between red and pink onions?
Red onions have a deeper color, stronger pungency and longer storage life, which suits cooking and long voyages. Pink onions are milder, crisper and lighter in color, so they're popular for salads and retail.
When is the best time to buy onions from India?
India has two main onion crops. The rabi crop, harvested from March to May, stores the longest and makes up most export volume. The kharif crop comes in from October to December and is better sold fresh rather than stored.
Why do Indian onion prices change so often?
Prices follow daily mandi rates, which shift with weather, crop size and domestic demand. The Indian government also changes export duties or minimum export prices from time to time. That's why every quote is based on current rates.
What documents come with each shipment?
Every shipment includes a phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin, commercial invoice and packing list. If your country needs anything else, tell us when you order.
Do you also export onion powder?
Yes. Onion powder is part of our spice range. Mention it in your enquiry and we'll quote both together.
