Sesame Seeds Exporter to Taiwan — Pakistan Sesame Seeds Supplier

Taiwan is one of Asia’s most sesame-intensive food cultures — black sesame oil (麻油) for winter dishes, sesame paste (芝麻醬), sesame oil chicken, mooncakes and bakery toppings — and domestic production covers only a small fraction of demand. Kohenoor International, exporting from Hyderabad, Sindh since 1957, supplies natural white, hulled and black sesame (Sesamum indicum, HS 1207.40) at 99.98% purity and 48-52% oil content to Taiwanese oil pressers, paste makers, bakeries and importers, shipped FOB Karachi to Kaohsiung, Taichung or Keelung in 14-18 days with TFDA-ready documentation.

Why Taiwanese Buyers Choose Pakistani Sesame

Taiwan imports tens of thousands of tonnes of sesame every year, traditionally from Africa, Myanmar and India. Pakistani sesame has become a preferred alternative for pressers and food manufacturers in Kaohsiung, Tainan, Taichung and Taipei for six reasons:

The Taiwanese Sesame Market: Oil Pressing, Paste and Traditional Foods

Sesame sits at the centre of Taiwanese cooking. Black sesame oil is the base of 麻油雞 (sesame oil chicken) and postpartum confinement meals, white sesame oil and paste go into noodle sauces and hotpot dips, and both colours feed the bakery, mooncake, nougat and traditional confectionery sectors. Health-food brands market black sesame powders, drinks and 芝麻糊 for calcium and antioxidants. Domestic sesame is grown mainly in Tainan and Chiayi but covers only a small share of consumption, so pressers and food manufacturers depend on imports year-round.

Taiwan’s importers are quality-driven and inspection-conscious: the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration samples imported sesame at the border for pesticide residues, aflatoxin and heavy metals. Kohenoor International supplies sortex-cleaned lots with full analysis, aligns documents with TFDA and the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Agency (APHIA) requirements, and offers black, natural white and hulled grades so a single importer can serve oil pressers, paste factories and bakeries from one container.
