Developments in the Spices Trade: A Review
Abstract
As with many other food industries, the traditional spice trading methods are breaking down under pressure of demands for increased quality and quantities of ever more spices and spice products. Traditionally, spices have come from the East, via Arabian merchants who held the secrets of crossing the vast deserts separating Asia from Europe. Today, spices have been successfully introduced into countries to which they are not indigenous. If the traditional ways are to be replaced with methods which can meet the needs of the future, co‐operation is necessary between not only traders but also researchers, legislators and nations.
