Fox nuts for Bangladeshi wholesalers and food makers

Short answer: National Makhana Udyog supplies graded, handpicked makhana (fox nuts) to Bangladeshi importers in 4 Sutta+ to 6 Sutta+ grades. We plan the route with you, by sea or overland, and trial orders start from 8 kg. A 20 ft container carries about 2–2.5 tonnes. Prices are quoted on request.

Bangladesh is next to Bihar and West Bengal, so buyers often compare sea and overland options for cost and time. Trade routes and rules between the two countries can change, so we confirm the current position with you before we quote a shipment.
