I am truly thankful to MEWA India for the opportunity to share my views on the current almond trade and industry landscape. The conference is truly one of its kind, bringing together stakeholders from across India and around the world.

It provides a valuable platform for exchanging insights and ideas. I sincerely wish MEWA India & Nuts and Dry Fruits Council (India) continued success and even greater achievements in the future.

It has been a pleasure attending MEWA India 2026 this year. One of the major takeaways for me is that the industry is evolving rapidly - presenting both challenges and opportunities for suppliers as well as clients.

An event like this provides a valuable platform to come closer as an industry, openly discuss opportunities, and address challenges together. I truly look forward to attending again next year and continuing these meaningful engagements.

NDFC(I) is a highly valuable platform for buyers to connect with suppliers and build new partnerships. It offers meaningful opportunities to discover new suppliers and gain deeper market insights.

The recent pistachio panel was particularly insightful, especially amid uncertainty around Iranian pistachios. I hope NDFC(I) continues its excellent work in supporting brands like ours to grow and thrive.

We are thrilled to be part of MEWA India 2026 this year. The event provides an excellent opportunity to connect face-to-face with importers and strengthen valuable industry relationships.

MEWA India 2026 organised by NDFC(I) is by far the most important trade event for us, bringing together our shippers, processors, leadership, and key importers and buyers from India on one platform.

We are delighted to partner with MEWA India. With pistachios being a rapidly growing category in India, there is truly no better forum to showcase the strength and potential of our industry.

As representatives of American Pecan Growers, we are excited to bring Pecans to the people of India. Known as the ‘Nut of Elegance,’ Pecans elevate meal experiences and are ideal for premium gifting.

I would like to thank the NDFC(I) for a flawless and well coordinated visit of the US Delegation to Khari Baoli.
I appreciate the way the Council handled each of the US delegate by making them walk comfortably through the busy roads of Old Delhi market, for its patience and support in making the event successful !!

The board team is united. I feel it is a good experience, and they will do great in this platform.

Very good, it will be helpful in future. Right now we cannot complain to anybody because nobody was there to listen. But now with this platform, I am sure we will be heard and our problems will be solved.

Actually, it was much awaited for many years. It was not a good organization but in this way, I hope that people connect well.

I think we can leverage on each other’s strength. So happy seeing about 250 importers come together under one roof and most of us are competitors. I think its a great time in the Indian food industry where we are being more collaborative and less competitive.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to the Nuts and Dry Fruits Council (India) team for your active participation and interaction in the roundtable meeting with the senior US Government officials from the State Department of Agriculture and the US Department of Agriculture's Cooperators. The interaction was very productive and the US members present got a good insight about the tree nuts market in India.

Basically, we have been associated with different products in India as far as this association is concerned. And this is one uniform platform that we want to tell everybody where all nuts are equal.

With this platform we have a place where we can go in case of mistakes from anybody’s side, both exporter and us. This is an excellent and beneficial initiative for all of us.

It is a great privilege to receive the MEWA Ratna Award at MEWA India 2026. Our journey reflects generations of dedication and innovation that have helped shape and transform the industry.

I sincerely thank MEWA India for honoring those who have devoted their lives to building and strengthening this product category.
