Project Overview

Project Overview

China is the world's largest sesame importer, and Humera-type Ethiopian sesame is considered a premium benchmark. This contract supplied 3,000 MT to a top-tier Chinese processor.

Challenge

The buyer required 99.5% purity, moisture below 5.5%, and FFA below 2%. Shipments needed to arrive within a tight window to feed continuous factory operations.

Our Solution

We aggregated from pre-qualified collection centres in Humera, Gondar, and Metema. Each lot was cleaned at our processing partner's facility with gravity separators and colour sorters. SGS pre-shipment inspection was conducted on every container.

Results

  • All 150 containers passed SGS inspection on first attempt
  • Average purity achieved: 99.6%
  • Average moisture: 5.2%
  • Buyer ranked us as "A-grade supplier" for the next season
