Sona Masoori Rice Exporter & Supplier
Sona Masoori rice is a medium-grain, lightweight rice variety grown mainly in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Karnataka. It’s known for its light aroma, low starch content, and easy digestibility, which makes it a preferred everyday rice across South India and increasingly in export markets. Unlike basmati or long-grain non-basmati varieties, Sona Masoori is shorter and rounder, cooks light and fluffy, and is widely used for daily meals, idli, dosa batter, and South Indian cooking. We export sona masoori rice across Raw, Steam, Brown, Unpolished, Organic, and Premium grades, with full documentation for bulk buyers.
