Sannam chilli is one of India’s most widely traded export-oriented chilli varieties, valued globally for its balanced pungency, bright red colour, and versatile culinary applications. Primarily cultivated in the major chilli-growing regions of Andhra Pradesh, especially around Guntur, this variety is recognised for its uniform pods and consistent quality in international spice markets. Typically ranging from about 6–10 cm in length, Sannam chillies have medium-thick skin and moderate heat, making them suitable for a wide range of food processing and seasoning applications.

Offered with stem, without stem, crushed flakes, or finely milled powder, Sannam chilli delivers a balanced combination of colour, flavour, and pungency. Its adaptability in spice blends, chilli powders, sauces, and processed foods makes it a preferred choice for importers, spice processors, and food manufacturers seeking reliable, high-quality Indian red chillies.
