Kolam Rice — Maharashtra's Finest Premium Grain
Kolam rice, also widely known as Surti Kolam, is a premium short-to-medium grain variety cultivated primarily in the fertile regions of Maharashtra and Gujarat, India. Celebrated for its lightweight character, exceptional softness after cooking and naturally pleasant aroma, Kolam occupies a unique space between everyday non-basmati rice and aromatic premium varieties.
Its fine texture, white lustrous appearance and consistent grain quality have made Kolam a highly sought-after rice in Indian diaspora communities globally — particularly in the Gulf, UK, Canada, USA and Southeast Asia where consumers seek authentic Indian cooking experiences without the premium price of Basmati.
At SDEY Global Trade, we export premium Kolam rice sourced from verified mills in Maharashtra and Gujarat — in 5kg, 25kg and 50kg bags, FOB from Mumbai and Mundra ports, with full APEDA certification, Halal compliance and export documentation.
