Why here

Altitude, rainfall and clan-held farmland the rest of the world can't replicate.

Northeast India's hill belt — Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Sikkim and upper Assam — sits at the meeting point of the Himalayas and the Bay of Bengal monsoon. High rainfall, mineral-rich hill soil and centuries of smallholder cultivation give crops like Lakadong turmeric and large cardamom a character that can't be reproduced on flatland farms elsewhere.

Westora Global works directly with hill farmer collectives and our own Jorhat tea factory, rather than through commodity traders — so every shipment can be traced back to the specific village and harvest lot it came from.
