Garlic (Allium sativum) is an immensely popular, aromatic export commodity traded globally across food, neutraceutical, and seasoning industries. Characterized by its sharp, sulfurous aroma and compact clove groupings, premium garlic demands careful agronomic curing to preserve its flavor profiles and ensure long-term stability. Aba Impex sources its garlic from top-tier growing zones where cold winters and bright summers produce dense, tightly packed bulbs containing maximum allicin levels. Our garlic undergoes extensive curing, where the roots and stems are cleanly trimmed, and the outer papery layers are dried to perfection, serving as a shield against moisture and fungal rot. We utilize automated mechanical sizing combined with manual sorting to eliminate empty skins, soft bulbs, or split heads. This strict process ensures our export batches retain their internal moisture and weight throughout long sea journeys, delivering premium garlic ready for global retail shelves and industrial spice processors.
