Can Good Saffron Change Lives? Mohammad Salehi Thinks So.
The CEO of Heray Spice is not only making saffron accessible to Americans, he’s also providing farmer families in Afghanistan with financially stable avenues and rewards

Been perfecting this fragrant rice dish with saffron from Herat, a far western province in Afghanistan where women rise before dawn to harvest crocus flowers.

But Salehi’s business model isn’t just about sourcing high quality saffron. “One of the biggest aspects of my company is helping farmers in Afghanistan. Because farmers need a lot of attention here. They are the ones who get the least amount of money in the cycle,”

Heray Spice imports saffron from a cooperative of 25 farming families from two villages in Herat Province. Salehi knows them all personally, and his company pays on average $400-$500 more per kilo than local traders.
