Kashmiri Giri Walnut | Akrod | अक्रोड

Our Kashmiri Giri Walnut brings a rich, nutty flavour and an oil-rich bite to everyday snacking and home cooking. With the hard shell already removed, these walnut kernels are ready to enjoy by the handful, crumble over breakfast or add to your favourite family recipes.

We procure these walnuts from the same farmer who supplies our Kashmiri Mamra almonds. That familiar sourcing relationship connects two of our dry-fruit selections, bringing the story behind the food closer to the people who enjoy it.

What does “Kashmiri Giri Walnut” mean? “Giri” refers to the edible kernel inside the walnut, with the hard outer shell removed. “Kashmiri” identifies its Kashmir origin, while walnut is also known as akhrot or akrod. Giri describes the shelled form, not a separate walnut variety or a quality grade.

A Shared Kashmir Source, Supporting Local Farmers

Our Kashmiri almonds, walnuts and saffron come from the same farmer through our sourcing relationship with ZF Kashmiri Dry Fruits. Alongside supplying his produce, he is working to help other farmers in Kashmir receive fair and appropriate prices for theirs.

ZF Kashmiri Dry Fruits works with farmers in Kashmir, connecting their produce with customers who value its quality and origin. PIP AGRO collaborates with this organisation with a shared aim: better pricing for farmers and carefully selected, quality products for consumers.

For us, this relationship is about both sides of the journey: recognising the work behind each harvest and bringing thoughtfully sourced Kashmiri produce to your table.

A Kashmir Connection Shared with Our Almonds

These walnuts come through the same farmer relationship behind our Kashmiri Mamra almonds. Our Kashmir sourcing connection is with ZF Kashmiri Dry Fruits, working with local farmers in the region.

For PIP AGRO, that connection is part of the selection story: introducing another food from a familiar source, with its own flavour, texture and place in your kitchen.
