About us
Al Tammar — A family in the date trade since 2002
al-tammārWhere our name comes from
Long before it was our name, al-tammār described a person: the one who traded in dates. Someone who knew the fruit, chose it with care and brought it to the people who would enjoy it. That is the work our family has done for more than two decades — and the standard we hold the name to.
The beginning
Not a brand madefor a moment online.
Al Tammar began as a family business built on experience, relationships and a real connection with dates — years before it had a website.
2002The founder
The business begins
Abdul Samad’s father starts the business. Its foundations are simple: know the fruit, choose it well, and look after the people who buy it.
The years
that followedLearning the trade
Season after season, the business builds what can’t be bought — experience across varieties, an eye for quality, and relationships based on trust.

Carrying the family business forward
In 2002, Abdul Samad’s father started a business in dates. Today, Abdul Samad carries it forward as Al Tammar — with the same respect for the fruit, and the same care for the people who buy it.
The name on the pack has changed with the times. What it stands for has not.

What we stand for
We will not put our name on dates we wouldn’t proudly serve at our own table.
- 01
Every pack carries our family’s name. We take that personally.
- 02
Quality isn’t something we advertise. It’s a responsibility we carry.
- 03
We would rather offer fewer varieties than one we don’t believe in.
- 04
A customer who comes back matters more than a sale made today.
- 05
When you see the Al Tammar name, it should tell you something.
The Al Tammar standard
How the philosophyshapes the work.
Five principles guide what we choose, what we supply and how we work with the people who buy from us.
Homes to businesses
The quantity changes.The standard doesn’t.
Al Tammar is a dates importer and supplier serving far more than individual households. Whether you are buying a single pack or planning a bulk order for your business, the same care goes into what we supply.

Our mission
To bring carefully selected dates to homes and businesses across India — and to protect the values our family business was built on: quality, honesty, consistency and respect for the fruit.
Our vision
To make Al Tammar a trusted name for dates in India — the place people come to for the right variety, whether they need one pack or a full order.
We want to grow the range, reach more customers and build stronger retail and business relationships, without lowering the standard that brought us here.
The collection
Dates are notone-size-fits-all.
A soft Kimia and a firmer Zahidi are different experiences — and so are Ajwa, Sukkari, Safawi, Amber, Medjool, Sagai, Mabroom and Tunisian dates. We’re not trying to build the longest list of varieties. We’re building a collection where every choice is worth making.
Kimia and Zahidi are available online today. Other varieties are coming soon to the Al Tammar range and can already be sourced for wholesale.
The family behind the name
Two generations.One name.
A business started by a father and carried forward by his son. Al Tammar is still, at its heart, a family business.
The same standard, passed on.
Looking ahead
Growing the reach of the name —not changing what it means.
- A growing online storeSo more people can buy Al Tammar dates directly, wherever they are in India.
- A wider rangeNew varieties joining the Al Tammar collection, chosen with the same care.
- Customers across IndiaDelivered from our home base in Hyderabad, Telangana.
