Import Dried Lupin — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Egypt

Dried lupin from Herbseic is sourced from cultivated Lupinus species grown in Egypt’s Nile Delta region. The seeds are harvested, dried naturally under controlled conditions, and mechanically cleaned to remove debris and damaged kernels. The product exhibits a creamy off-white color and a firm, dense texture typical of high-grade lupin beans.

The botanical classification is Lupinus genus, family Fabaceae, with protein content typically between 35-40% and dietary fiber exceeding 30% on a dry basis. These values align with standard nutritional profiles for food-grade lupin used in plant-based protein applications. The seeds are not roasted or salted and contain no additives. The natural alkaloid content is within safe limits for human consumption, as required by EU and Codex standards.

This product is primarily purchased by manufacturers of vegan protein isolates, gluten-free baked goods, and meat analogs in Europe and North America. It is also used in traditional Mediterranean dishes as a substitute for chickpeas or lentils. Trade terms include FOB Alexandria or CIF port of destination. Minimum order quantities are flexible but typically start at one 20-foot container. Lead time is approximately 20-30 days after order confirmation.

Herbseic is listed as an export supplier of dried legumes from Egypt, with no additional details provided about its operational structure. The company holds harbor-level trust verification, indicating registration in Egyptian export databases and compliance with basic customs procedures.

Buyers should treat this as a trader and independently verify the origin of the lupin, processing methods, and compliance with food safety regulations.
