About the brand
Diaspora Co. was founded by 23-year-old Sana in the fall of 2017 with just one spice - Pragati Turmeric - after learning about the inefficiencies and poor economics for farmers in the spice trade. Today, Diaspora Co. sources over 30 single origin spices from 150 farms across India and Sri Lanka, while paying their farm partners an average of 6x above the commodity price. In a system where fair trade is a mere 15% premium, Diaspora Co. works to pay their farm partners a fair living wage to set the foundation of building climate resilience and more delicious food systems.
