What are gherkins and
why is India a leading producer
The word gherkin means a “small cucumber”.
Gherkins are edible fruit consumed in brine or vinegar after pickling.
Gherkin condiments are in high demand in Europe and North America. They are also popular in Asian countries and Australia.
Since the gherkin crop in Europe and North America is seasonal, though the product is in demand throughout the year, their local supply is only for three months, whereas it is for ten months in India.
How we process
gherkins at our factories
IVPL’s two factories have adopted the best industry practices in gherkin processing to deliver the highest quality products to its customers, meeting international quality specifications and food safety standards.
IVPL’s extensive processes exceed industry standards to eliminate product defects and ensure the highest quality. IVPL uses a three-stage inspection and three-stage washing unique to the Indian gherkin industry. Such meticulous processing ensures that IVPL gherkins are defect free when customers receive the product at their foreign destinations.
Karnataka's ideal climate

Gherkins grow well in areas with temperature of 15 and 35℃. As such temperatures prevail round the year across Karnataka farmers with the ideal farm soil now find gherkin cultivation a viable alternative to growing traditional crops.

Sustainability & livelihoods through
gherkin cultivation
Approximately 50,000 small and marginal farmers with one or lesser acre land holdings in Karnataka have stopped growing traditional crops by switching to gherkin cultivation.
Such farmers are now protected from market vagaries by gherkin contract farming for exporters. Moreover, unlike traditional crops, gherkins assure farmers of a guaranteed purchase by the gherkin exporters like IVPL.
