About Turkish Gram

Turkish gram (Cicer arietinum var. kabuli or larger-seeded chickpea), also called large chickpea or kabuli chana, is a legume with a larger seed size and thinner hull than Indian desi chickpea. Despite the name 'Turkish,' the crop is widely grown across India — particularly in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and parts of Maharashtra — alongside production in Turkey, Australia, and Canada. Turkish gram is exported for both fresh-use (hummus, refried preparations) and processing (flour, roasting). India is among the world's largest chickpea producers (~9–10 million tonnes) and a growing exporter of kabuli varieties.

Compliance & Quality Standards for Canada

Canada's Safe Food for Canadians Act (SFCA) and Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR) govern all imported food products. Foreign suppliers exporting to Canada must be covered under a licensed Canadian importer's Preventive Control Plan (PCP), which tracks supply chain and food safety controls. IndianXporter works with licensed Canadian importers and prepares all required CFIA documentation including phytosanitary certificates, fumigation certificates, and Certificates of Origin. Bilingual labeling (English and French) is mandatory for all retail products under Canada's Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act. Health Canada sets Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) that align with but sometimes exceed Codex Alimentarius standards. Products entering through Vancouver benefit from efficient Asia-Pacific gateway logistics, while Montreal serves the French-speaking Quebec market efficiently. At IndianXporter, we ensure every batch of turkish gram exceeds the quality expectations of Canada importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.
