Shipping questions
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We arrange export shipping from Visakhapatnam, Chennai or Mumbai to any commercial port. Freight is charged separately from the rice at the carrier's actual cost.
Is freight included in the rice price?
No. Every quote shows the rice price per kilo ex-works Tanuku and the freight to your port as a second line, with the carrier's rate attached, so you can compare it with your own forwarder.
Which Incoterms do you work with?
FOB, CIF, CFR and DAP. If you prefer to arrange your own freight, choose FOB and we deliver the goods to the port of loading.
How long does shipping take?
Road to port takes one to three days depending on the port. Ocean transit to a US West Coast port is roughly four to six weeks; Europe and the Gulf are shorter. Exact dates come with the quote.
