Natural & Hulled Sesame Seeds from Gujarat

Premium Sesame Seeds,
Direct from Gujarat

RPM Global Exports sources sesame seeds from Gujarat's premier growing regions, where warm climates and centuries of cultivation produce seeds with high oil content and exceptional purity. Our supplier relationships — built through regular market visits to Unjha APMC — allow us to maintain consistent grade standards across shipments.

We offer three grades: Hulled (for tahini, hummus, halva, and premium bakery — the hull is removed for a clean white seed), Natural White Sortex-Cleaned (for oil extraction, bakery toppings, and confectionery — hull intact, high oil content), and Black Sesame (for East Asian confectionery, health foods, and specialty bakery). Each grade comes with a spec sheet and sample availability.

Common Questions from Importers

What is the difference between natural and hulled sesame seeds?
Natural (unhulled) sesame retains the outer hull — higher fibre, slightly bitter, used in bakery and oil extraction. Hulled sesame has the husk removed — whiter appearance, milder flavour, preferred for food service and tahini production.
What oil content and moisture do you supply to?
Oil content: 48–52% for natural sesame; 50–54% for hulled (single/double sortex). Moisture: below 8%. Third-party lab CoA included with each batch.
What is the MOQ, and can I trial before committing to bulk?
MOQ is 1 MT. First-time buyers can trial from 500 kg. Free pre-shipment samples available for quality verification before placing any order.
What certifications cover your sesame seed exports?
We hold IEC (DFLPJ8868G) and GST (24DFLPJ8868G1ZW). IOPEPC registration — required for sesame seed exports — is in progress and being finalised.
What packaging is available for sesame seeds?
Standard is 25 kg PP woven bags. 50 kg bags and custom labelling available on request. Pre-dispatch packing photos and video sent via WhatsApp before shipment.
Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis with each shipment?
Yes. A third-party lab CoA covering oil content, moisture, purity, and microbial standards is included with each batch. Copies are available before payment if requested.
What Incoterms do you offer, and can you quote CIF?
We quote on both FOB (Kandla / Mundra) and CIF basis. CIF pricing includes sea freight and marine insurance to your destination port. Specify your preferred Incoterm and destination port when enquiring.
Which countries do you export sesame seeds to?
We supply sesame to buyers in the Middle East, Mediterranean region, and East Asia, as well as other markets on request. Hulled sesame is preferred for Middle Eastern and Mediterranean buyers; Black Sesame for East Asian confectionery and health food markets.
