What It Is
Sesame seeds are small, oil-rich seeds from the Sesamum indicum plant. They come in various colors — white (hulled), brown, and black — and are widely used in baking, cooking, oil extraction, and cosmetics due to their high oil content (up to 50%) and rich nutritional profile.
What Export of It Is
Nigeria is one of the top producers and exporters of sesame seeds in Africa, supplying countries like Japan, China, Turkey, the UAE, and the EU. Export-grade sesame seeds are properly dried, cleaned, sorted, and bagged in hygienic conditions. Both hulled and natural (unhulled) sesame seeds are exported depending on client demand.
