Shipping Information
Exporter details revealed after verified importer registration
Hulled sunflower seed kernels are the shelled, ready-to-use edible portion of the sunflower seed, used across bakery, cereal, snack, and health food manufacturing where whole hulls aren't wanted in the finished product. Karnataka is India's leading sunflower-producing state, followed by Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, Bihar, and Odisha. Operating from North Goa as a trading and export coordination base, we source directly from these growing and processing regions and manage hulling, grading, packaging, and export documentation for international buyers. For bakery manufacturers, cereal producers, snack brands, and food processors internationally, this means access to consistent hulled sunflower kernels backed by full export documentation.

Sunflower kernels used as a visible inclusion in bread, granola, and cereal products need consistent size and a clean, uniform color, since the kernel is visible in the finished product and affects both appearance and texture consistency across a production batch. Buyers should specify size uniformity requirements alongside oil content when ordering for this application.
Kernels destined for direct snacking or health food mixes (trail mix, seed blends) are typically evaluated more on flavor freshness and oil content than strict size uniformity, since these applications don't require the visual consistency baking does. Buyers should confirm current oil content and freshness testing rather than assuming all hulled kernel stock meets the same specification across applications.
Karnataka's sunflower growing belt, India's largest, sits at some distance from Goa, so our role here is trading, quality verification, and export coordination rather than proximity to the growing fields. North Goa's port access supports export logistics, and centralizing procurement relationships across Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Maharashtra's growing and processing regions through a single point helps manage consistent grading and food safety documentation across export orders.
Standard 25kg HDPE or multi-layer paper bags for bulk industrial orders. Retail and smaller packaging formats available on request. Custom branding and private label packaging available for buyers building their own food ingredient or health food line.
FSSAI license, Certificate of Analysis (oil content, moisture, purity) per batch, Certificate of Origin, phytosanitary certificate where required by destination country, Kosher and Halal certification available on request.
The seeds are sourced from Karnataka, India's leading sunflower-producing state, along with Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Telangana. Export coordination, hulling, grading, and documentation for our shipments are managed from North Goa.
Standard premium hulled sunflower kernels carry a minimum 42% oil content, though buyers should confirm their specific application's requirement, since oil content affects both flavor and shelf stability differently across bakery, snack, and health food uses.
Bakery and cereal inclusion grades need consistent size and clean uniform color since the kernel is visible in the finished product. Snack and health food grades are typically evaluated more on flavor freshness and oil content, with less emphasis on strict size uniformity.
MOQ varies based on grade, oil content specification, and packaging format. Confirm the current minimum for your specific requirement directly.
Sunflower seeds generally fall under HS code 1206.00, while further-processed hulled kernels may fall under 2008.19. Confirm the exact classification with your customs broker based on your specific product's processing level.
