Diaspora Co. makes it easy to purchase single-origin Indian spices that directly support Indian farmers through an equitable and sustainable supply chain. With its spices, Diaspora Co. describes that it's on a mission to "disrupt and decolonize an outdated commodity spice trading system." By doing so, power is shifted from the hands of traders to laborers and farmers, and consumers can support this mission just by committing to buying a different brand of spices. In The Trio from Diaspora Co. are the brand's best-selling spices: aromatic Pragati turmeric, hand-pounded Guntur Sannam chilli powder and the fragrant Aranya peppercorn blend.
