In this episode of Eat. Drink. Think. host Amy O'Neill Houck is speaking with Sana Javeri Kadri, founder and CEO of Diaspora Co., a direct trade, single-origin spice company dedicated to building a better spice.
Sana began Diaspora Co, a company which has upended the supply chain of the centuries-old spice trade, at the wise and energetic age of 23—just a few years and a pandemic ago, in 2017. She began, after months of sourcing work and research, with just one spice: turmeric.
Diaspora sources direct from farmers and sells direct to consumers in order to pay farmers, on average six times the commodity price for spices.
