Bulk Makhana (Fox Nuts) for Nepali Importers
Graded, handpicked fox nuts for wholesalers, retailers and food makers in Kathmandu, Birgunj and across Nepal, sent over the land border from Bihar and Kolkata.
Fox nuts for Nepali wholesalers and retailers
Short answer: National Makhana Udyog supplies graded, handpicked makhana (fox nuts) to Nepali importers in 4 Sutta+ to 6 Sutta+ grades. We plan the route with you, usually overland through the Indian border, and trial orders start from 8 kg. Prices are quoted on request.
Nepal is landlocked and sits close to Bihar, so most goods arrive by road, often through Birgunj, or via the Kolkata and Haldia ports for sea cargo. The route and customs process affect your cost, so we agree the route and who handles border clearance before we quote.
