Black Sesame Seeds

Black sesame seeds are a premium oilseed commodity with significant demand in food processing, confectionery, bakery, and health supplement industries worldwide. Richer in certain antioxidants and minerals than white sesame, they are valued for their deep nutty flavour, attractive black appearance, and high oil content, making them a preferred ingredient in Asian cuisines, health foods, and specialty bakery products globally.

Geodhara International exports machine-cleaned, sun-dried black sesame seeds sourced through our supplier network, mainly in Gujarat. Each consignment is sorted for purity, tested for moisture, oil content, Salmonella and ethylene oxide, and packaged to preserve freshness through transit, meeting the standards of food manufacturers, confectioners, edible oil processors, and wholesale buyers internationally.

Our target markets include South Korea, the USA, Vietnam, Russia, and Iraq. For importers, food manufacturers, oil processors, and distributors there, we offer bulk supply, competitive pricing, and complete export documentation.
