As an experienced green lentils exporter, we manage the full chain—from origin sourcing and quality control to international logistics—so you can book with confidence and focus on your market. What sets us apart is pragmatic execution: crop-by-crop procurement at the right origin, rigorous cleaning and grading, transparent COA, and dependable shipping windows. That combination is why buyers looking for a bulk green lentils exporter keep returning to us season after season.

Know Your Product: What Exactly Are Green Lentils?

Green lentils (Lens culinaris) are prized for their firm texture and earthy taste. They hold shape after cooking, making them ideal for retail packs, HORECA, and industrial recipes (soups, ready meals, canned goods, mixes, and salads). Common commercial varieties you’ll see in specifications:

• Laird — large green lentils (typically ~6–7 mm)

• Richlea — medium green lentils (~5.5–6 mm)

• Eston — small green lentils (~4.5–5.5 mm) We supply size/grade combinations

depending on origin and crop. If you require a specific sieve size or variety name on the COA, tell us at inquiry stage so we align sourcing from the start.

Pricing: What Drives Your Final Cost

As a seasoned green lentils exporter, we price transparently and explain the variables:

  • Origin & Crop Year: Affects baseline cost and size mix availability
  • Cleaning Level: Machine cleaned vs double polished + Sortex
  • Size/Grade: Large (Laird) usually commands a premium over small (Eston)
  • Packaging: Plain PP vs custom print, retail pack costs, palletization
  • Incoterms: EXW/FOB vs CFR/CIF (we quote ocean freight at market)
  • Volumes & Contract Length: Better terms on programs/blanket POs
  • Seasonality & FX: Pulse markets and freight rates can shift; we hedge where sensible
Tip: If your market is price-sensitive, consider a machine-cleaned medium or small size from an efficient origin. If your market is brand-driven retail, choose double polished + Sortex and a tighter size band.
