Everything a buyer usually asks
Short, direct answers to the questions we get most often from importers, distributors and brand owners.
Which countries do you export to?
We ship to the United States, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Singapore, Japan, New Zealand and Qatar, and we can supply any market where makhana is a permitted food import. Each destination has its own labelling and residue rules — FDA prior notice for the US, EU food contact and nutrition declaration rules for Europe, Halal expectations in the Gulf — and we prepare the documentation for that market rather than sending a generic pack.
How is it shipped, and to which ports?
Most orders move by sea in FCL containers from Nhava Sheva, Mundra or Kolkata; urgent or sample volumes go by air from Delhi or Mumbai. We work on FOB, CFR, CIF and DDP terms, whichever suits your freight arrangement. Because makhana is low density, we plan the load by volume so you are not paying for half-empty containers, and we can consolidate multiple grades or SKUs into a single container.
What are your lead times?
Samples reach you in 3–5 working days by courier. A confirmed bulk order is ready to ship in 10–15 days; repeat private label orders take 20–30 days, and a first private label run ships 5–7 weeks from artwork sign-off because pouch printing and tooling are added. Sea transit then depends on the lane — roughly 6–14 days to the Gulf, 19–26 days to Europe, 20–26 days to the UK, 26–34 days to the US east coast, and 8–12 days to Southeast Asia. Air freight lands anywhere in three to seven days.
Destination and compliance FAQs
Which countries do you currently export makhana to?
+
Active markets are the United States, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Singapore, Japan, New Zealand and Qatar — each has a dedicated destination page. We also quote for France, Malaysia, Kuwait and other permitted markets on request.
Can you export to a country not listed here?
+
Yes. Fox nuts are an unrestricted commodity in most markets. Share your destination and we will confirm the applicable import requirements and documentation before quoting.
Who acts as importer of record?
+
You or your nominated customs broker. We supply the complete export document set required for clearance; we do not act as importer of record at destination.
Do labelling requirements change by country?
+
Considerably. EU and UK packs need specific nutrition panels and allergen formatting, GCC markets need Arabic labelling and often halal documentation, and US packs must follow FDA labelling rules. We build label copy to the destination.
How do you handle duties and tariffs?
+
Import duty is payable at destination by the importer. We provide the certificate of origin, which allows you to claim preferential rates where an India trade agreement applies.
