About
I'm Shruti Dhariwal, the Co-founder of Ethical Espicio and a specialist in global trade and IT recruitment.

At Ethical Espicio, I'm currently focused on redefining the spice and grain trade through technology and sustainable practices, scaling our reach across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. I bring a decade of experience in international logistics and a proven track record of growing export revenues and operational efficiency. I'm passionate about transparency in supply chains and empowering communities through direct market access. I’m always looking to connect with international buyers, agricultural suppliers, or tech professionals and recruiters who value innovation and seamless execution.
