Why UK Buyers Choose Kohenoor for Spices
-
Post-Brexit Compliance Expertise
Since the UK left the EU, import regulations have diverged. Kohenoor has adapted fully: we provide UK-specific phytosanitary certificates, APHA-compliant documentation, and ensure all shipments meet UK Food Standards Agency requirements rather than outdated EU-era paperwork.
-
Six Products, One Consolidated Shipment
UK spice distributors typically stock multiple lines. Kohenoor offers mixed containers combining fennel, fenugreek, ajwain, basil, dill, and cumin in a single 20ft FCL — reducing per-unit shipping costs and simplifying customs clearance at Felixstowe.
-
Serving Both Health Food and Ethnic Markets
The UK's spice demand spans two distinct channels: the growing health food sector (basil seeds, fennel, fenugreek for supplements) and the established British-Asian ethnic food market (cumin, ajwain, fenugreek for cooking). Kohenoor supplies both channels from a single FSSC 22000 certified facility.
-
Steam Sterilization Available
UK retailers increasingly require steam-sterilized spices for food safety. Kohenoor offers optional steam sterilization processing that reduces microbial counts to retail-ready levels while preserving flavor and color — meeting Tesco, Sainsbury's, and ASDA supplier standards.
