In 2024–2025, trade in agricultural products between India and Russia is showing strong growth — and these are not abstract forecasts but real shipments and revenue. For Indian exporters of rice, spices, tea, dried fruits, and other food products, the Russian market represents a concrete commercial opportunity.
Key Figures (Facts)
  • In 2024, India’s tea industry exported approximately 255 million kg of tea, marking nearly a 10% increase over 2023.
  • Russia is among the importers of Indian tea. According to trade data, India’s exports of coffee, tea, mate & spices to Russia in 2024 totaled about $105.77 million, with tea making up a substantial portion (~$74.19 million).
  • India’s tea production declined by around 7.8% in 2024 (especially in Assam) due to adverse weather, driving average prices upward by ~18%.
Market Appeal in Russia
  • Russian consumption of quality teas remains stable, especially in retail and hospitality (HoReCa). Consumers increasingly value natural, region-specific blends (Assam, Darjeeling).
  • The decline in production and rise in tea prices in India create opportunities for suppliers who can guarantee supply and quality
  • Russian importers are looking to diversify sourcing, particularly from suppliers with strong logistics and compliance capabilities.
Logistics and Regulatory Requirements
  • Phytosanitary certificates
    Phytosanitary certification and regulatory compliance are essential (pesticide-free, microbial testing)
  • Labeling and packaging
    must align with Russian standards (Russian language labeling, shelf life, ingredient disclosure).
  • Logistics
    stable container routes, secure packaging, resilience under transit and climate variance
  • Customs procedures
    Proper documentation and experienced brokers reduce clearance time
