What we ship to Canada
How this market actually buys
Strong South-Asian diaspora demand for Anwar Ratol and Chaunsa. Rice volumes are year-round through Toronto-area distributors.
Toronto and Vancouver diaspora retail wants Anwar Ratol and Chaunsa in gift-able cartons, not bulk bins. CFIA permits sit with the Canadian importer. Rice (Super Kernel, 1121) is the year-round lane; mango is seasonal air via Dubai. Tell us the banner — T&T, independent South-Asian, or foodservice — the pack changes.
Toronto diaspora
Toronto buyers take Anwar Ratol and Chaunsa in gift cartons. Tell us the banner. An independent South Asian shop and a foodservice kitchen do not want the same pack.
Vancouver and Montreal
Vancouver is the other air city we name. Montreal is on the city list for buyers who ask. The permit is still Canadian. The fruit is still air via Dubai.
CFIA permit
The Canadian importer holds the CFIA permit. We send the phytosanitary pack. We do not hold the permit for you.
Anwar Ratol and Chaunsa
Those two are the gift varieties on this lane. Sindhri can move early, by air, when you name the week. Do not assume the USA irradiation step. This page does not say Canada uses that hop.
Year-round basmati
Super Kernel and 1121 are the year-round rice program into Toronto distribution. Rice does not follow the mango flight.
Documentation
Phytosanitary, CFIA import permits (managed by buyer), Halal, Certificate of Origin.
Programme and lead times
A confirmed order plans at 14 days to sea dispatch, or 5 days for air. Spot space depends on the vessel. A weekly sailing is not a promise on every line.
Mango on this desk is May through September. Rice moves year-round from stored lots. The new-crop conversation is October through February. Onion is not a standing line on this desk. Cotton follows the ginning window, roughly October through February, and only as the product named here, lint or yarn.
Compliance and quality
Lots for Canada leave with the papers that commodity uses: phytosanitary where the crop needs it, Halal on food, KCCI origin, and the treatment or lab sheet for that product. Mango hot water is 48°C for 60–90 minutes. Grain fumigation is the contractor certificate. The document pack goes out before the bill of lading. Your broker files the destination entry. Zarkaar is not the importer of record.
Zarkaar does not claim GlobalG.A.P., BRC, organic, or SMETA. A buyer-side audit stays with the buyer. Those marks are not printed on a bag or a carton from this desk.
