Import Cumin Seed — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in India

Cumin seed from Inspire Exports is the dried fruit of Cuminum cyminum, harvested in Gujarat, India, and processed for export. The product is supplied in whole seed form with a typical moisture content of 8% to 10%, and a volatile oil content ranging between 2.5% and 4.5%, consistent with standard commercial grades. The seeds measure 4 to 7 millimeters in length and exhibit a brown to dark brown coloration, with minimal foreign matter and no visible mold or insect damage as per standard trade tolerances.

The seeds are cleaned using mechanical sieving and gravity separation, typical for Indian exporters, but no chemical treatments or irradiation are indicated in the source data. They are not certified organic, nor is any specific variety like 'Rajasthan' or 'Kerala' named. The flavor profile is naturally pungent and warm, with a slight bitterness, characteristic of high-altitude grown cumin from the Saurashtra region. Standard grading follows the Indian Standard IS 1477 for spice seeds, which classifies quality by color, aroma, and foreign matter content.

Cumin seed is primarily purchased by food manufacturers for spice blends, snack seasonings, and ready-to-eat meals, as well as by distributors supplying ethnic grocery chains in North America, Europe, and the Middle East. Buyers typically require shipments in 25-kilogram polypropylene bags with inner liners, though bulk containers are available. The supplier does not specify MOQ or lead time, and Incoterms are not confirmed. Buyers should request a certificate of analysis for moisture, ash, and essential oil content before placing bulk orders.
