What TasteIndia does

Taste India Exports Pvt. Ltd. is an India-based food trading and export company that serves as an intermediary between Indian producers and Gulf-market buyers. Headquartered in New Delhi, the company sources food products directly from producers and farmers in India without middlemen, and distributes them through a B2B model to wholesalers, supermarkets, hypermarkets, cold stores, and retail shops in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

The company's product portfolio spans grocery and dry-fruit categories, including brown rice, organic rice, basmati rice, honey, almonds, walnuts, and Indian spices. Its operating model is built on direct producer relationships on the supply side and multi-channel Gulf retail and wholesale relationships on the demand side. The company is affiliated with multiple industrial group entities in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia — MERIT, SAMCO, MAZCO, SASCO, and Indus Consult — which facilitate local market access. Revenue is generated through a transaction-fee structure on food import and distribution activities.

The entity is privately held with no disclosed external investors, no proprietary technology, and no published headcount or financial figures. It self-describes as the "One and Only Link" between Indian producers and Gulf markets, reflecting its positioning as a cross-border food distribution intermediary rather than a vertically integrated producer or branded retailer.
