What the Erode Turmeric (Erode Manjal) GI means for sourcing
A Geographical Indication ties turmeric from tamil-nadu to a defined origin and its qualities, registered under application 231 and held by Erode, Tamil Nadu. Buyers who need documented provenance — private-label brands, premium retail, and importers whose own customers ask for it — specify the GI on the contract. When we ship against a GI claim we reference the registration so the mark on your carton holds up.
For grades, specification and the wider trade in this spice, see the Turmeric export page. We also ship it to buyers worldwide — tell us your market and grade and we will quote it.
