About UsIt’s true that we understand the true value of anything only when we lose it. Same goes for the foodie goodies that mother use to make, that was available when you wanted it back home.
Nilamels tries to bring you the happiness you once knew back home in Kerala. Ever since the exports which started in the early 80s, Nilamels has occupied that little special space in the hearts of home sick Malayalees the world over and contributed significantly to introduce snacks of Kerala to the people of other nations. And today the legacy that goes as back as 1943 has become a household name for the expatriate Keralite.
Nilamel Exports is one of the leading export houses in the state of Kerala with Head Office in the capital city, Thiruvananthapuram. Products ranging from Fresh & Frozen Fruits, Vegetables, snack food, spices & condiments, ayurvedic food, coconut products etc. are being sent to Kuwait, U.A.E, K.S.A, Qatar, Europe, Canada and US. It has been maintaining the No.1 position among the exporters of Agricultural Processed Foods to Kuwait consecutively for the last 10 years. |
