According to her, there were also enquiries for seeds of the spices.
'They want to grow our products here because the soil is very fertile and also virgin,' Usha said, adding that paprika was a spice that could be grown in South Africa.
Maintaining that 'a lot of formalities' and complications were involved in exporting seeds, she said: 'I think if the soil is fertile here, some of our exporters may well come over here and do contract farming and supply back to India for this paprika which has a big demand.'
