“My grandfather planted the oldest tree on our slope. We still pick it by hand.”
Our growers
We don't grow it. We know exactly who does.
Chinar & Co. is a trading house, not a farm. We sit between the valley's high-altitude orchards and the buyers who deserve them — and our only job is to keep that chain honest, traceable and fair at both ends.

The grower charter
Four promises we don't bend
- 01
Named at the gate
Every lot is logged to a registered grove. No blending into an anonymous sack.
- 02
The buyer’s price, shown
Growers see the grade and the price the buyer pays. The broker fee is flat and visible.
- 03
Paid on dispatch
No ninety-day waits. Families are paid when the lot leaves, not when it sells.
- 04
Slow over fast
We pay for cold, slow curing — never a kiln rush to hit a shipping date.
