đŋ Vegetable Extracts Export from India<br />By Harsh Dhawan<br /><br />India is fast emerging as a global hub for vegetable extracts export, thanks to its vast agricultural diversity and advanced processing technology. These extracts — derived from spinach, beetroot, carrot, drumstick, and tomato — are widely used in food, cosmetics, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries. They serve as natural colorants, flavoring agents, and health supplements, replacing synthetic additives in international markets.<br /><br />Major export destinations include the USA, Germany, Japan, UAE, and the Netherlands, where the demand for natural and organic ingredients is steadily growing. Indian exporters benefit from abundant raw materials, cost-effective labor, and compliance with ISO, FSSAI, HACCP, and GMP certifications.<br /><br />Packaging plays a crucial role, with extracts usually exported in airtight HDPE drums, aluminum containers, or vacuum-sealed pouches to maintain purity and shelf life. The APEDA and Spices Board of India support exporters with market access and quality promotion schemes.<br /><br />With the world shifting towards plant-based and clean-label products, vegetable extracts offer immense profit potential. Entrepreneurs investing in this segment can earn good margins while promoting sustainable agriculture and “Make in India” products globally. đ
