Indian Fennel Seeds in Bulk

Fennel is bought mainly on colour in the Indian trade, where the bright green bold seed used as mouth freshener commands a substantial premium over ordinary material. Gujarat and Rajasthan grow most of it, with the fine Lucknowi variety coming from Uttar Pradesh. BulkFineChem supplies machine-cleaned and sortex fennel to mouth freshener manufacturers, masala makers, extractors and export buyers.
