Fox nuts for Thai wholesalers and snack makers

Short answer: National Makhana Udyog supplies graded, handpicked makhana (fox nuts) to Thai importers in 4 Sutta+ to 6 Sutta+ grades, shipped from India to Laem Chabang or Bangkok. Air trials start from 8 kg, and a 20 ft container carries about 2–2.5 tonnes. Prices are quoted on request.

Thailand has a strong snack-manufacturing industry and a warm, humid climate. We plan moisture and liner packing first, because humidity during storage can soften the puff.
