Ethiopia's Oilseed Powerhouse

Ethiopia ranks among the top five global sesame producers. Our oilseeds are sourced from the fertile lowlands of Tigray (Humera), Amhara, and Western Oromia — regions renowned for high oil-content varieties prized by buyers in China, Japan, the Middle East, and Europe.

Sesame Seeds

Humera-Type Whitish Sesame — 50%+ oil content. The gold standard for tahini, halva, and bakery applications.
Wollega Mixed Sesame — Reddish-brown variety ideal for oil extraction and confectionery.
Available hulled or unhulled, conventional or organic certified.

Other Oilseeds

Nigella Seeds (Black Cumin) — High thymoquinone content for food, pharma, and nutraceutical markets.
Linseed (Flaxseed) — Rich in omega-3 for health food and industrial uses.
Sunflower Seeds — Confectionery and oil-type varieties.

Quality & Certification

All shipments undergo SGS or equivalent inspection. We offer conventional, organic (EU/USDA), and Fair Trade–certified lots. Moisture, FFA, and purity tested before export.
