Why we source from Brazil

Kehkashan sources from Brazil because Brazilian growers operate the variety, climate and certification stack that buyers in 80 plus destinations ask for by name. Field origins are vetted by our supervisor before lot release, documented under the same trade desk a buyer sees on every other origin, and released only against an inspection report.

Flagship products from Brazil

The flagship mix from Brazil centres on Sesame Seeds, Castor Seeds. Variety codes are surfaced on the product page so a buyer searching Sesame Seeds self-selects a pricing tier on the first RFQ. Where multiple varieties qualify, we quote the two closest to the buyer brief and recommend a trial.

Quality standards and certifications for Brazil lots

Lots ship under RENASEM seed registration, MAPA phytosanitary, ISTA. Phytosanitary clearance is issued by MAPA (Ministerio da Agricultura, Pecuaria e Abastecimento). Where the buyer requests an ISTA-format Certificate of Analysis we reference the lot against an accredited laboratory before container release. Off-spec retests are handled at the loading port at our cost.

Logistics: Brazil ports to Jebel Ali to destination

Brazil ships out of Port of Santos, Port of Paranagua, Port of Itajai. Containers are quoted on FOB, FCA, CFR and consolidated at Jebel Ali alongside lots from other origins before onward shipment. Trans-shipment via Port of Paranagua is used when berthing windows at Port of Santos slip on the original sailing.

Sample policy and quality assurance for Brazil buyers

Sample-first is the default policy for Brazilian origin lots. We courier a one to two kilogram sample with a draft Certificate of Analysis so the buyer can run a lab confirmation against Sesame Seeds before any PO. Sample fees credit against the first full container load on acceptance, and freight is invoiced at cost.

How to request a quote for Brazil-origin products

Send an RFQ tagged Brazil with product, variety preference and target volume. Within 24 working hours our trade desk returns a FOB quote out of Port of Santos, alternative origin options where supply is tighter, a draft Certificate of Analysis tied to the harvest window, and a couriered sample plan.

Variety codes and pricing tiers from Brazil

Buyers searching Sesame Seeds by variety code self-segment into the right pricing tier. From Brazil we map each enquiry to the closest Brazilian variety on our active grower roster. Where stewardship documents apply, the lot ships only with the matching trait-licence package attached to the bill of lading and the export pack.

Multi-origin consolidation including Brazil lots

A single PO can stack two or three Brazil varieties into one Jebel Ali consolidation, or pair a Brazil lot with origin-mate volumes from a neighbour country. The buyer sees one bill of lading, one Incoterm and one dispatch desk regardless of how many sub-origins fed the container during the consolidation window.

Trade finance and sanctions screening on Brazil purchases

Settlement on Brazil purchases is opened against our UAE Free Zone account in USD or EUR. Letters of credit are screened against UN, EU, US and UK sanctions lists before confirmation. TT advance is offered to repeat buyers after two containers have cleared without deviation, and DP terms are available on long-cycle relationships.

COA disputes and replacement policy for Brazil lots

If destination lab results report germination below 90 percent or purity below 99 percent, we accept a counter-sample drawn under SGS or Bureau Veritas. Off- spec lots from Brazil are replaced from a sister origin or refunded against the agreed Incoterm. Every deviation is logged on the lot card and re-cleaned before resale.

Packaging and pack-size options for Brazil export lots

Standard packaging for Brazil export lots is 25 kilogram PP bags or 50 kilogram jute bags depending on commodity. FIBC jumbo bags at one metric tonne are quoted on industrial-grade castor and guar. Foil pouches at 500 grams or 1 kilogram are used for vegetable-seed F1 hybrids; private-label printing is quoted on request.

Sourcing transparency and grower traceability for Brazil

We name the Brazilian grower programme on the proforma invoice and the loading-port inspection report on every Brazil lot. Buyers requesting a farm-level traceability dossier receive harvest-block GPS coordinates, lot cleaning protocol and the laboratory chain-of-custody on request before any purchase order is confirmed.
