ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer delivering industrial-grade whole black gram with 99.5% guaranteed purity to importers, distributors, and ethnic food processors across the United Kingdom.
Whole Urad Dal — scientifically Vigna mungo — is a critical industrial raw material for the rapidly expanding British ethnic and plant-based food processing industry. Harvested from India's fertile plains, our supply represents the pinnacle of agricultural excellence combined with modern milling technology.
At Sahaj Agro, we deliver supply-chain certainty for UK buyers: direct farm-gate procurement, zero aged stock, and no chemical polishing. For British food manufacturers, this means higher recovery rates and superior functional performance in every application, fully compliant with stringent UK Food Standards Agency (FSA) guidelines.
With robust APEDA and UK Customs clearance protocols streamlined, we provide a secured technical solution for your industrial pulp and plant-based protein needs, ensuring every 24-metric-tonne container meets UK port thresholds seamlessly.
Raw, unpolished with skin intact. Ideal for prolonged cooking and value-added processing. Sourced for high protein retention in the UK plant-based market.
Outer skin removed via advanced de-husking. Favoured by UK HORECA distributors and food processing for instant batters and fine flours.
Split variations with/without skin. Graded for rapid cooking applications and high-speed industrial grinding lines in British food plants.
For British procurement officers: Our parameters are verified for every batch through NABL accredited laboratories to ensure UK DEFRA and FSA compliance.
