Import Cumin Seeds — Buy in wholesale FOB from Supplier in India

Keshavam International supplies whole cumin seeds sourced from major Indian growing regions. The shipment is machine cleaned, sortexed and classified as Extra Bold, with purity levels of 99 % for Singapore quality and 98 % for Europe quality, while the Europe batch reaches 99.50 % purity. Moisture is controlled at a maximum of 10 %, total ash at 9.50 % and acid‑insoluble ash not exceeding 1.75 %. Each 100 g contains at least 2.00 ml of volatile oil and the product is tested to be free of Salmonella in a 25 g sample.

In the spice trade, cumin seeds typically retain moisture between 8 % and 12 % to preserve volatile oils and prevent mould growth. Standard industry limits for total ash lie in the 8 % - 10 % range, and acid‑insoluble ash is usually below 2 %, matching the figures supplied by Keshavam. A volatile oil content of 1.5 - 2.5 ml per 100 g is considered normal for premium cumin, giving the characteristic aromatic profile described as penetrating. The machine cleaned and sortexed process removes foreign matter and aligns with common quality assurance practices for export‑grade spices.

Whole cumin seeds are favoured by food manufacturers, restaurant chains and spice distributors because the powder loses aroma over time. Keshavam packages the seeds in moisture‑protective containers designed for long‑term freshness and ships to markets including the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Brazil and Singapore. Buyers should request the supplier’s phytosanitary certificate, a moisture analysis report and confirm the intended Incoterm before placing an order. As the listing does not disclose minimum order quantities or lead times, these details must be clarified directly with the exporter.
