Everything a buyer usually asks
Short, direct answers to the questions we get most often from importers, distributors and brand owners.
What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
For loose bulk makhana the practical minimum is 500 kg for air freight and one container load for sea freight — around 6–8 MT in a 20ft container and 14–16 MT in a 40ft high cube, since makhana is very light and cubes out before it weighs out. For private label retail packs the MOQ is 1,000–5,000 units per SKU depending on pack format, driven by the printed-film minimum rather than by us. First-time buyers can start with a smaller trial shipment while a relationship is being established.
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.
How does the export process actually work?
It is eight stages — inquiry, sampling, quotation, production, inspection, documentation, shipping, delivery — and takes four to six weeks from first email to vessel departure. You send us your requirement and we reply within 24-48 hours with a quotation and specification sheet. Reference samples reach you in 3–5 working days by courier. You confirm with a purchase order and advance or letter of credit, and the lot is processed, graded and packed at the contracted unit. Moisture, size and broken percentage are verified before stuffing, with third-party inspection on request. We then prepare the full document set in-house, book the container, complete customs, and share tracking with your clearing agent, couriering documents ahead of arrival.
Quotation FAQs
What do I need to provide to get an accurate quote?
+
Grade or product, quantity in kilograms or containers, packing format, destination port and preferred Incoterm. Missing any of these means we quote a range rather than a price.
How long is a quotation valid?
+
Typically 7–15 days. Makhana is an agricultural commodity and pricing moves with crop availability, so long-dated offers are only issued under a contracted volume agreement.
Will you quote without a company?
+
We quote registered businesses only. Please use a company email address and include your registration or VAT number where available.
Can I request samples with the quote?
+
Yes. Note the grades you want to evaluate in the message field and we will courier samples with the matching lab report alongside the offer.
Do you quote landed cost?
+
We quote EXW, FOB and CIF. CIF includes ocean freight and insurance to your port but excludes destination duty, clearance and inland delivery.
