Olam India has grown to become one of the largest and most diversified agri-commodity companies in the country.
We began operations in 1992 with a single cashew-trading office in Mumbai. Since then we have grown to employ over 5,500 people, including seasonal workers and contract staff.
Our business includes the processing of nuts – primarily cashews and almonds; and spices – including turmeric, chilli, coriander, cumin, black pepper, and ginger. We are also a leader in cotton, coffee, rice, cocoa products, oil and oil seeds.
Our teams work directly with thousands of farmers across India, including promoting Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in chilli, turmeric and cumin. Our coffee has achieved UTZ/Rainforest Alliance (RFA) certification. We aim to be the supplier of choice, from sourcing and processing to logistics and marketing.

Creating strong and thriving communities
At Rusmolco, we care deeply about the communities that lie at the heart of our operations. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to tend to our herd or run our farms.

For example, in areas close to our farms in Arshinovka, Narovchat and Serdobsk, we have and will continue to partner with local authorities in building new homes for our employees.
