Premium Whole Masoor
Supplier to Canada

About Whole Masoor

Whole Masoor (Lens culinaris) is the unsplit, brown-skinned red lentil — the whole form before dehulling reveals the orange interior of split masoor dal. Whole masoor retains its seed coat, giving it a firmer bite, a nuttier flavour, and a longer cook time than the split lentil, making it ideal for traditional whole-lentil dishes, sprouting, salads, and feed.

India is the world's largest lentil producer (~1.2 million MT), with whole masoor grown as a Rabi (winter) crop concentrated in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh. Whole masoor carries 24–26% protein and is machine-cleaned and colour-sorted for export. Its intact seed coat gives it excellent storage stability and pest resistance.

Globally, whole lentils trade in tiers: premium bold colour-sorted whole masoor for retail and sprouting, standard whole masoor for traditional cooking, and feed-grade lentils. India differentiates on diaspora loyalty, bold seed size, and cleaner glyphosate residue profiles compared with bulk-export origins such as Canada and Australia.

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 whole masoor exceeds the quality expectations of Canada importers and adheres to all local regulatory mandates.
