🌍

World's 2nd Largest Sesame Producer

India is the world's second-largest sesame producer and exporter. Gujarat and Rajasthan together account for over 60% of India's sesame cultivation. This concentration of supply, combined with established processing infrastructure in Ahmedabad, Rajkot, and Surat, ensures consistent availability, competitive pricing, and short lead times for bulk organic sesame seeds.

🌱

NPOP & EU Organic Dual Certified

Our sesame seeds carry NPOP (India's organic standard, equivalent to USDA NOP) and EU Organic certification. Dual certification enables direct entry to US, EU, Canadian, and Japanese markets without re-certification or import delays. Third-party audit documents and annual certification renewal provided per shipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What grades of organic sesame seeds are available from India?
Radiance Overseas supplies four primary organic sesame seed grades: (1) Natural sesame (unhulled, tan color, 99.95% purity, moisture ≤6%, oil content 48–52%, sortex grade). (2) Hulled sesame (white, 99.97% purity, whiteness ≥40, moisture ≤0.1%, ideal for tahini and bakery). (3) Black sesame (sortex grade, protein ≥20%, moisture ≤6%, specialty market for health supplements and confectionery). (4) Golden sesame (premium appearance, flavor profile between natural and hulled). All grades are NPOP and EU Organic certified, sourced from Gujarat and Rajasthan.
Is Indian organic sesame certified for EU and US markets?
Yes. Radiance Overseas supplies sesame seeds with dual certification: NPOP (National Program for Organic Production, India's organic standard equivalent to USDA NOP) and EU Organic (certified for EU market entry under Regulation (EC) 834/2007 and 2018/2848). Both certifications are third-party verified and provided per shipment. These certifications enable export to FDA-regulated markets (USA, Canada) and EU member states without additional import inspection or re-certification delays.
What is the shelf life and storage requirement for organic sesame seeds?
Organic sesame seeds have a shelf life of 12–18 months when stored in cool, dry conditions (18–24°C, humidity <65%). Store in airtight, food-grade containers away from direct sunlight and odor sources. Vacuum-sealed or nitrogen-flushed packaging extends shelf life. Sesame's high oil content (48–52%) makes proper storage critical — rancidity develops if exposed to moisture or heat. Radiance Overseas provides packaging with oxygen absorbers and food-grade moisture barriers to ensure quality throughout transit and storage.
What documents are provided with organic sesame seeds shipment from India?
Standard export documentation: (1) APEDA Certificate of Origin, (2) NPOP and EU Organic certification documents, (3) Phytosanitary Certificate from NPPO India, (4) Certificate of Analysis (COA) from NABL-accredited lab — purity, moisture, oil content, protein, fatty acid profile, sesamin content, aflatoxin, salmonella testing, (5) Commercial invoice and packing list, (6) Halal certificate (if requested), (7) MSDS and COO documentation. EU customs documentation (EUR.1 or REX declaration) provided on request. Radiance Overseas handles all export-side paperwork and ensures 100% compliance with destination country import requirements.
