The short answer
You can source whole and ground spices and seasoning blends from Pakistani manufacturers in bulk or in retail packs under your own label. Define the product, the grade, the grind and the pack first. Ask for laboratory reports and food-safety certificates before you order, because spice imports are checked closely in the US, UK and EU.

Food safety and testing
Spices are checked closely by importing countries for contaminants. Ask each manufacturer for a laboratory report on the batch, covering the items your market tests for, such as microbiology, pesticide residues, mycotoxins and, for some spices, illegal dyes. Ask which food-safety certification the plant holds, such as HACCP or ISO 22000, and check that it is current. Requirements differ by country and change, so confirm them with your importer before you order.
Minimum order, samples and lead time
Minimum orders depend on the manufacturer, the product and whether you want a custom recipe or label. Ask each manufacturer for a written quote that states the price per kilogram or per pack, the minimum order, the lead time and what is included. Taste and test a sample, and have it tested by a laboratory in your market if you are unsure.
We can send your brief to several manufacturers, compare quotes and arrange samples and inspection. You pay the supplier directly.
