Product overview

Small seed. Broad global demand.

African sesame is traded into food and oil markets. Natural white types are commonly selected for food applications, while mixed types may be directed toward crushing and oil extraction depending on the buyer’s requirement.

MAINSOURCE AGRO FZC LLC coordinates sourcing and preparation from producing regions, with orders defined by variety, purity, moisture, oil content, admixture, packaging and destination requirements.
