Our Story: From Unjha's Spice Hub to the Global Market
In the heart of Unjha, Gujarat—Asia’s renowned spice hub—Dhirajbhai Desai laid the foundation for what would become Desai Global Exim. After earning his B.A., Dhirajbhai explored various jobs before finding his calling at Unjha’s APMC Spice Market. Working under a prominent trader, he mastered the art of spice quality, trading, and the dynamics of the domestic market.
With five years of experience and a deep understanding of the supply chain, Dhirajbhai opened Desai Spice Store in 2009. His hard work, persistence, and positive approach transformed the store into a trusted name across North Gujarat, known for premium spices like cumin, chili, turmeric, and fennel.

Key People
Dhirajbhai’s sons, Chetan and Dhaval Desai, inherited his passion for the family business. After completing his engineering degree, Dhaval joined his brother Chetan, who was already a skilled trader. Dhaval’s vision extended beyond India’s borders, recognizing the rising global demand for Indian spices. He founded Desai Global Exim to bring Unjha’s finest spices to the international market.
