India's trade with the west began with the spice trade via the spice route. Nature has blessed India with a variety of spices. Today India is the largest exporter of spices. We at Paprika Oleo's India Limited (POIL) take pride in continuing to be part of India's traditional export of spices, capable of meeting the standards of the international spice industry.

Paprika Oleo's India Limited (POIL) is a family owned company that is professionally managed and continues the tradition established by our ancestors. POIL, established in 1992 by VPSA Paramasiva Nadar, has rapidly grown to be one of the largest manufacturers and exporters of chillies and chillie products. From humble beginnings more than a hundred years ago the family rose to be the top exporter of dried chillies from India since 1942. It was VPSA Paramasiva Nadar who first exported stemless chillies from India in 1964. We now deal in the entire range of chillie based products from stemless chillies, crushed and ground chillies to capsicum and paprika oleoresins to pure capsaicin.

Though our forte continues to be chillies we along with our associated companies have an ever widening market for other spices such as turmeric, dry ginger, curry leaves, coriander, sesame seeds, peanuts cotton seed, neem products etc. We also have diversified interests in manufacture of cotton yarn, operate our own refrigerated warehouses and are distributors for FMCG products of leading companies such as ITC for their and food products.
