Mauritius looks to revive rice trade with India
Business Standard
|November 03, 2025
Mauritius is looking to enter into long-term deals with India for import of around 33,000 tonnes of rice to keep its subsidised food programme running and to ease out Pakistan, which has become a significant supplier of the staple food to the country, according to Mauritius State Trading Corporation Chairman Takesh Luckho.
Speaking on the sidelines of a global rice conference, Luckho said that Pakistan had become a significant rice supplier to Mauritius after India banned non-basmati rice exports in 2023 to cool down domestic prices. He said before the ban, the majority of the rice was supplied by India through long-term deals.
