Wholesale Green Coffee: Koraput, Odisha to Maldives 🇲🇻
Koraput Arabica from Odisha's Eastern Ghats, shipped to roasters and importers across South Asia. Roughly 3–10 days by sea; overland for the landlocked markets by sea to Malé, with full farm-level traceability and EUDR-ready GPS data on every lot.
The Maldives coffee market
The Maldives market is driven almost entirely by resort hospitality; shipments are LCL and timed to resort supply cycles.
Koraput sits at 700–1,100 m in the Eastern Ghats and is one of India's youngest traceable origins: washed, natural and honey Arabica (S795, SLN 9, Chandragiri, HSD) grown by tribal farming communities across 24 partner estates. For a Maldives roaster it offers a distinctive Indian profile with clean cup character and documentation that stands up to scrutiny at import.
