What to look for when sourcing sesame seed

Product specification

Hulled sesame for confectionery and unhulled seed for oil extraction have different requirements. Start with the intended use and define the form and cleanliness.

Form & grade

Specify natural or hulled seed, color, size and variety. For hulled seed, note the expected whitening and moisture content.

Purity & foreign matter

Agree limits for foreign material, stones, dust and other seeds. These determine how much cleaning you will need before processing.

Packaging & lot

Confirm bag type, weight, and whether you are buying a specific lot, a blend, or a continuous shipment from the same crop.

Quality acceptance

Visual inspection alone is not enough to judge sesame quality. Agree how samples will be assessed and how they relate to the final shipment.

Lab analysis
Set required tests such as moisture, oil content, free fatty acids and impurities. Specify the method and who will perform the tests.
Physical assessment
Define acceptable color, uniformity, and presence of foreign seeds or damaged kernels. A representative sample from the lot is essential.
Acceptance & claims
Identify offer, pre-shipment and arrival samples. Retain the approved sample and agree inspection responsibilities and claim deadlines.

Origin requirements

Origin affects flavor, oil content and processing characteristics. Indicate preferred origins, but confirm the actual crop and traceability you need.

Preferred origins

State which countries or regions you prefer and whether they are fixed or flexible for the season.

Crop & stock

Ask about the harvest season, storage conditions, and whether the seed is available now or needs to be procured for future shipment.

Optional substitutions

For repeat orders, define which origins or varieties you can accept if the primary one is unavailable, and list acceptable alternatives.

Commercial terms

Sesame prices are quoted per unit weight on a specified basis. Compare the final cost on the same delivery and payment terms.

Price basis: Confirm whether the price is FOB at origin, CIF at destination, or ex-warehouse, and which party covers freight, insurance and local charges.
Quantity & timing: Specify the contracted quantity, allowed tolerances, and precise shipment period. Confirm any advance payment or payment against documents.
Quote validity: Ask how long the quoted price and terms remain valid, and what index or reference they are based on, if any.

Documentation & compliance

Documentation must match the specific shipment you are buying. Confirm the required paperwork before signing the contract.

Shipping documents: Align lot references, weight and entities across the invoice, packing list, transport document and any inspection certificate.
Certification: For organic or scheme-certified sesame, verify current scope and the transaction or chain-of-custody evidence required for the lot.
Destination rules: Check import requirements for your destination, such as phytosanitary measures, residue limits or due diligence obligations on deforestation, and the supporting data needed.

Supplier capability

A producer, cleaner, huller, exporter or trader may each manage a different part of the process. Establish who is accountable for your shipment.

Processing
Identify who performs cleaning, hulling, sorting, and storage, and who resolves a sample or shipment quality failure.
Repeat supply
Ask how the supplier maintains consistent quality across seasons and which replacement lots it can offer if the first is unavailable.
Order fit
Confirm minimum shipment quantities, sample availability and export documentation support. For smaller purchases, ask about consolidation or destination stock.
